I’m an actor in this and there actually was no camera man probably 90% of the time. The camera was a large plexiglass sphere that would be placed in the middle of the scene. Crew would yell “CLEAR THE SPHERE” and find cover. Then after about a minute yell action. It was a wild experience as an actor.

Lost 2 relatives in that war. Eleazer Moore and his son Lewis G. Moore. Both enlisted in Maine in late 1861. Both taken prisoner in 1864. Both died in captivity. Lewis, of the 1st Maine Cavalry, volunteered for Dahlgren's Raid on Richmond. Captured and died at Andersonville, his body is in an unmarked grave. Eleazer fought with the 30th Maine Infantry during the Red River Campaign in Louisiana. He probably walked across the dead line so he could die on the anniversary of his wife's death...June, 16. She died as a result of giving birth to Lewis, June 16, 1842.

If they do cover anything outside of American Soil expect it to be only Battles and wars Americans or American/British Colonists participated in.

Yea. More often then not some of the citizen soldiers ended up fighting due to the battle being brought to their families land. At that point is was no longer about political leanings or racial concerns, it was being told this or that army was on their way and your land (the only thing you had) was about to be forfeit. The politics are always taught in school. The human reality never is. Go to battle ground sites , read some of the recovered letters, read the markers of what actually happened.

Like at Sharpsburg at the "bloody lane" when a Confederate soldier who was wounded in his leg had a dead man laying on it. A passing Union soldier knocked the dead man off of his leg.

I grew up near Petersburg, VA. The whole area around there was a battlefield. When I was a kid I heard about the war from the old timers who heard about it when they were kids from their grandparents who lived it. Many of the old farm houses in our neighborhood still bear the scars of that war. The old house on the farm across the road the road from our farm was a hospital. The floor in one of the front rooms was completely stained with blood. The old Slovak farmer who lived there rolled the carpet up once and showed it to me. He said the people his parents bought the place from in the 1890s when they came here from the old country said that room was where they did the amputations. The old farmer swore the place was haunted.

I did reenacting for 45 years, (1 1/2 years as a yankee 1861 US Marine Det.,U.S.S. "Hartford", and 43 1/2 years in seven different Confederate units). I got back from Vietnam and 4 years as a 0311 in June,1970, and in Sept., 1970 was in my first Civil War skirmish ~ went from a '69-'70 Nam Marine to an 1861 Marine in 3 months. From firing 5.56mm rounds from a M-16 at Communist VC & NVA, to firing (blank) rounds from a .58 caliber single shot "Zouave" Rifle Musket. Quite an experience ! LOVED IT !

The first literate war, with all the letters written home providing an incredible record. The astonishing personalities involved, from 'Old Blue Light' Stonewall Jackson to the frankly bizarre Daniel Sickles. I had the honour and the pleasure of photographing over a year UK reenactors of the US Civil War (I was embedded :) in the Union lines with the 18th Missouri), and eventually of visiting the battlefields of Gettysburg and Perryville. So strange that Europe sent so many military observers, and learned absolutely nothing about the awful nature of industrialised warfare for when WWI rolled around. Thank you the American Battlefield Trust for keeping history alive.

Good point about the observers and WW I. Seems all they learned was how to take the carnage to the next level.

Though, you could also argue that the US didn't learn anything from the Crimean War, where we had notable observers. The start of earthen fortifications to combat rifled artillery, first rapid fire weapons, trench warfare. I suppose there's always an earlier war we should've learned from, but the message tends to be more about how to kill more people faster than how to avoid the conflict all together...

I always found the story of the veteran Yankee soldier that had been shot in the leg, had it amputated, and was playing cards right after he'd awakened from the surgery like no big thing morbid, and funny in a way only veterans would understand. A hospital orderly went by pushing a wheelbarrow full of amputated arms and legs and the soldier stopped him, saying he'd like to see his leg one last time so he started rummaging through the grisly pile until he found his leg with a distinguishing bunion on it. He said his farewell to it and went right back to playing cards and smoking his pipe. After 4 years of war the survivors were a very hard set of men that could endure whatever was thrown at them. I couldn't imagine marching 30 miles a day in Southern heat wearing wool uniforms while living on coffee, tainted water and wormy hardtack.

@@tomservo5347 That war was very strange in many ways. I've read that at Cold Harbor in 1864 a Union color barer was advancing toward the rebel line so calmly as if he was on dress parade. When suddenly the Confederates started telling him "Go back! Go back!" Apparently he looked around and noticed his unit was all behind him cut to pieces, dead or wounded. The color barer halted in front of the Confederate earthworks made a hand salute with his flag before smartly turning on his heel and returning to his own lines. There are so many stories like this. I find the amount of respect they had for each other to be completely inspiring.

@@JohnnyReb Yea, that was a good story. They were really the same set of men-same country, religion, history. Confederate Sam Watkins wrote about how while foraging for food he ran into a Yankee-and they both decided shooting each other wouldn't change anything so they both raided an abandoned house together. Another time an old cabin was in between picket lines. Both sides used it as it was winter and they made an agreement to keep the firewood stocked and a nice fire going in the fireplace before they left and the other side took over. Another one was the Confederates that invited some Yankees over to a dance they were having and gave them their word they'd be safe. A Confederate officer showed up hearing the commotion, saw the Yankees and ordered them arrested-to which his men pleaded that they had given their word of honor to their 'guests' they'd be safe. The officer relented, gave them the 'don't do it again' speech and let them finish their dance.

This was awesome! 👏🏻

Loved it, oh wow those were the days 😢🙏🙏

The Confederates got so good at quickly digging trenches that one Union general exclaimed, "the rebels must pick them up and carry them with them."

@@IamtheNeptune In their state Constitutions? I believe you're talking about the "Declarations Of Causes" which interestingly enough weren't written by the state legislators of the states that did write an "Article of Secession/Declaration of Causes" but rather by a political minority who lost power after the events at Fort Sumter. Not all states that left the union by secession wrote one of those documents. Governor John W. Ellis. Governor of North Carolina had this to say. www.loc.gov/item/rbpe.13501200/ Also the United States government was not fighting to free the slaves as per the Crittenden-Johnson Resolutions. _________________________________ The Crittenden-Johnson Resolutions on the Objects of the War, 1861 (from Richardson (ed.), Messages and Addresses of Congress, Vol. 6:430) The Crittenden Resolutions [Passed by the House of Representatives] Resolved by the House of Representatives of the Congress of the United States, That the present deplorable civil war has been forced upon the country by the disunionists of the Southern States now in revolt against the constitutional Government and in arms around the capital; that in this national emergency Congress, banishing all feelings of mere passion or resentment, will recollect only its duty to the whole country; that this war is not waged on our part in any spirit of oppression, nor for any purpose of conquest or subjugation, nor purpose of overthrowing or interfering with the rights or established institutions of those States, but to defend and maintain the supremacy of the Constitution and to preserve the Union, with all the dignity, equality, and rights of the several States unimpaired; and that as soon as these objects are accomplished the war ought to cease.
