Welcome to the 4JAS Re-enactment & Living History Association website.

We portray soldiers from the U.S 101st Airborne, US Forces and Women's Army Corps from the 3rd Army HQ, and also have members depicting the Homefront life in Great Britain during the war.

Our aim by potraying these brave men and women, is to help keep alive the memory and sacrifices that were made during the second world war.

Every November the group takes to the streets to help raise money for the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal

Since 1995 4JAS have raised £24,092.72 on behalf of the appeal and in aid of ex-servicemen and their dependants.

**In June last year at the 1940's event at the Severn Valley Railway despite the floods and terrible damage, we completed a sponsored march from Arley to Bewdley in aid of the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal. With this effort we raised a further £572 on their behalf.
