In the early days, on an annual basis, the troops were \u2018mustered\u2019 or called to report.\u00a0 Over the years, the mustering of the troops became obsolete. However, the Texas Military Forces Museum\u00a0as part of\u00a0the Texas Military Forces \u00a0yearly Open House at Camp Mabry, holds a Muster Day where reenactors of all periods from the Texas Revolution \u00a0through current times can display their historical\u00a0uniforms, weapons and equipment\u00a0and show them to the general public. <strong>There is a large WWII battle reenactment each day.<\/strong> These battles feature\u00a0 200 Allied and German soldiers recreating a WWII battle using original equipment, tanks, and weapons from the time period. <strong>The museum will be open\u00a0Saturday from 8 am to 5 pm and Sunday\u00a0from 8 am to 5 pm.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Check back for a complete schedule in March<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Gates open at 8 am each day.
