Unionblue,
that's a beautiful and touching song. And good video. Thank you for posting the link.
To All,
Found this youtube video on another forum.
As you watch the video, please listen to the song that goes with it.
The title of the video is "North vs. South."

Enjoy.
And all honor to the men of both sides who had to wait until the sun went down.

"Peace is a precious and a desirable thing. Our generation, bloodied in wars, certainly deserves peace. But peace, like almost all things of this world, has its price, a high but a measurable one. We in Poland do not know the concept of peace at any price. There is only one thing in the lives of men, nations and countries that is without price. That thing is honor" -Józef Beck
Must agree with Bobbie, great video,would have been fantastic to have been there Tony![]()
Tony B. & Bobbie,
Thanks for the good words.
Tony B.,
I actually was 'there' in some of the video segments.
The video consists of various reenactments held throughout the year across the country, but the Gettysburg segments are from the 135th event, which I attended as a Confederate reenactor, 17th Mississippi, ANV.
I was in Picket's charge for that event, but only made it half-way before I was "hit."
It was such an impressive event.
Until our next post,
