The Texas Military Historical Society (TMHS) is a nonprofit corporation dedicated to preserving and experiencing the period of 1939-1945. It is in that idea that the Society was formed to promote and strengthen the World War II reenacting hobby. Our purpose is to portray, present and recreate the diverse groups of combat soldiers that fought in the conflict.
The Texas Military Historical Society has been around since 1978 and has undergone a couple of name changes.The first name was “The Southwest World War II Historical Society” and later in 1984 the named change to “The 36th Division Ceremonial and Demonstration Auxiliary” and eventually became the “Texas Military Historical Society” in 1988 when tax exempt status was granted as a 503c nonprofit organization.
