Within the Arizona Division, there exists an honorary society which honors our ancestors who served
in the infantry divisions, brigades and regiments of the Confederate Army. Conceived by Compatriot Paul Mears, membership
in the Society of the Sons of Saint Maurice is open to any descendant of a Confederate infantryman, be he a member
of a volunteer unit, a regular Confederate unit, a Marine rifleman, a militaman or a home guard--if he carried a rifle and
marched, he was an infantryman. Membership is not restricted to the Arizona Division but is open to any SCV member
in good standing.
The Society has no officers, no annual dues and no meetings.
There is a one-time initiation fee of $10.00 to cover administrative costs. The Society exists solely to memorialize
the legacy of the Confederate infantryman and is an honorary society within the context of the Arizona Division.
