The 1st Pennsylvania Mountain Regiment is a volunteer organization rooted in the communities of Pennsylvania. Founded on the principles of service, preparedness, and mutual aid, our members come from all walks of life — united by a shared commitment to protecting and serving the families and communities of the Commonwealth. 

We are apolitical and non-religious. We do not discriminate. Our only requirements are good character, a strong work ethic, and a genuine desire to serve. 

Service before self. We show up not for recognition but because someone needs help. Integrity, discipline, and compassion guide everything we do — in training, in the field, and in our communities.
