The Union Defeat That Saved Washington DC | Retracing History Ep. 75
The Battle of Monocacy is a criminally overlooked component of the American Civil War. While technically a union defeat on the battlefield, the sacrifices made by the boys in blue commanded by Major General Lew Wallace allowed enough time for the defenses of the United States of America's capital be prepped for a confederate attack.

It does seem those fake guns are painted to look like Brass Napoleons... imo
Did they paint those guns gold?
That was something I wasn't paying too much attention to at the time of visit, but upon re-examining my photos it appears they may be. If they are painted, i presume the Park Service made this decision to preserve the barrels. I encountered six field pieces during my exploration of Monocacy. All gold. But have seen older photos of the battlefield of those pieces with the barrels that oxidized teal color we are so used to from visiting Gettysburg & Antietam.
@@RedoubtProductions1754 I suspect those guns are fake, i.e. reproductions. Why else would you paint something that doesn't require it. Given the way government agencies are always crying about needing money, they won't do anything they don't have to. Of course this all speculation, except for the crying about money lol
LOVE your stuff man. I learn so much.
This is a remarkable presentation. At least as marvelous as this presentation is the knowledge, the commitment and the enthusiasm of these young presenters. That these young people are so devoted to the memory and the importance of these events at Gettysburg is a refreshing beacon of light to all historians of the Civil War as well as to historians in general. These young people are showing us that history is not dead and gone. History is crucial to understanding not just our past, but to an appreciation and understanding of our present. It is wonderful to imagine how grateful and excited the soldiers who participated in the monumental events of Gettysburg and especially those who gave the last full measure of their lives on these fields would be about the work, devotion and skill of these dedicated young folks of 2024.
I was in Gettysburg that weekend and saw you guys filming in the Wheatfield. I didn't want to bug you, but what a great and well researched video! Keep up the good work!
Another amazing video. Was there many years ago and it was great to see it again.
Just found your channel today when I saw your Folck's Mill video. Being from Cumberland, I was interested. Have watched like 4-5 other videos so far...can't wait to watch more. Great job on all of them.
People do not realize the magnitude and size of mining in western Pa.look at a map it's all mined.Half the coal is still there.

The campus at Notre Dame University has a replica of Father Corby blessing the troops and it is known as "Fair Catch Corby."

The politicians got credit for forming new units and not for refilling the ranks of existing units.
When I was a kid used to go fishing there, my dad got busted for having undersize bass Walked through the tunnel a few times, get into the middle and you can just see a speck of light at the ends. Always wondered what they did with all the rock they excavated
Dude. Three years ago? If I were you, I’m on my way off this hurtling stone, but I would set my sights and efforts to several great History schools (B, MA, little bit of cool) and Thirdly, Your Doctorate from some great school, great reputation producing heavy hitters, already stoked, and determined to ride a magic carpet write into multiple service, historical and personalized adventures not available to the consensus gentum. Good work and practice, your delivery which already has a hook and grab, 0:00 could open multiple doors in many directions. I went to Clarion U, ‘95. Ain’t the half of it, beyond being gifted.. what I’ve seen is, if you do what you love, and love what you do, you’ll never work a day for the rest of your life. I know that your generation are more than prepared, they’re riled, ready, and eager to meet any challenges or threats. PS I read, when the student is ready, the teacher will appear. Even though usually only after you find yourself; but most times, well, keep your eyes open, help and guidance is often braided in the threads of hopelessness and tragedy, ready to be untangled and repaired. I hope I didn’t insult any boundaries, but if I did, please accept my peremptory apologies. Airborne
Excellent then-and-now. Thank you for your efforts!
Also with whereni found the confederate position it had to be early in the battle or history has the lines blured but the confederate soldiers took up arms way closer to the mill than the battle maps show from what ive found they would be directly infront of there own cannons i looked and looked for the confederate line as per the map and couldn't find it then by accident one day just milling around on one of my permissions i sure enough called my buddy and said i found where they were 15 mins later i was digging round balls in a area that was missed thru the years this battle is very close in my heart its only about 5 mins from my house!
I have just about every permission to detect most of this battle ive found 1 confederate position and i have the main pos. Of general kelly best thing ive found was a spratts food canister lid that was looted in Chambersburg and either eaten or lost during this battle tons of musket balls 3 ringers ps on that hill side there is still a union cannon pos. My buddy crafty found a artillery shell fuse on the hill crest hillside
I'm sorry to be "that guy", but you are pronouncing Latrobe incorrectly. It is Lah' trobe, not Lay' trobe.
This is a great video! I love trips back in history of railroading. The then an now photos realy put you there on the spot. Nice job. :)
Great archival videos. What an awful tragedy and testimony of bureaucratic neglect and moral irresponsibility.
As a decendant of an XII and XX and later XXIII Corps veteran, your portrayal of XII Corps is more than insulting. The soldiers voted to retain the XII Corps badge for the XX Corps. The original XII Corps regiments were mustered at the start of the war and marched in the Grand Review after the victory. Also I Corps badge still lives on as the modern 1st Corps.
I shall be honest and say this is a biased ranking and I am not a fan of repurposing pre-existing corp badges. But at the end of the day, this stream was never going to give do justice on the performance of each corp. I'd suggest keeping your eyes out on the channel in the coming months as this stream has given me thoughts on doing a proper exploration of each union army infantry corp, because legacies such as that of the XX Corp deserve more recognition.
Fantastic job Spence. Examining this topic from the French perspective gives a new dimension to the story. Keep up the great work! Bravo Zulu!
I love when you go out in the field well done.
My wargame club is named for the regiment; we're ready still to support keeping the flag here in St. Paul
Hi Redoubt, very interesting video, thanks for the upload. I recently learnt why the 101st Airborne has the screaming eagle patch. Back in 1861 their mascot was an eagle called Old Abe. A funny piece I read - during the battle of Corinth, Mississippi, Confederate General Sterling Price remarked, "that bird must be captured or killed at all hazards, I would rather get that eagle than capture a whole brigade or a dozen battle flags."
Old Abe of the 8th Wisconsin. Depicted flying above the Atlanta Cyclorama.
@@RedoubtProductions1754 Yeah, I worded that wrong (I blame the poor standards in the English education system lol), Wisconsin was the territory of the original 101st Division and the insignia was inspired by Old Abe and the traditions of the 8th Wisconsin during the Civil War, but I am happy to be corrected on that.
I have to say, you did an absolutely great job on this video. This was my farm. Spot on accuracy. Good job man
I grew up on this farm. Mowed that yard many of times
Outstanding! Wonderful history beautifully and honestly presented. A real treat. Thanx for your work.
My grandpa lived in Cresson, PA. and worked for the PRR for 50 years, 1886-1936. He worked at UN tower just west of these tunnels. My mom told me a freight train derailed and took the tower out and they never rebuilt it. FYI - The PRR never called them a caboose. They were "cabin cars"
I donated at the beginning and still have the t-shirt.
Hi Redoubt, thanks for the upload, very interesting stuff. The 'edumacating' reminds me of Ralph Wiggum when he says 'I'm learnding' lol.
Love how the last thing is "you can't miss it" when I have in fact missed it when my mum drove right passed it😂
OMGosh how totally amazing!! Thank you for sharing this, Redoubt!!💖
Good video.
Kinda tacky to put the donors names on all the parts.
I haven't been to the museum since I was a kid, it's crazy the interactive electronics are still working.
It's incredible that such an event that so dramatically changed the history of the world started in such an unassuming little part of the woods.
you did a really good job on this video.. thanks !!!!! going there soon this year
Very informative video. Enjoyed your presentation and illustration. Left a like
Are they the Hagen's of Hagen Daz? If so it is pronounced hog-en. No?
Hagan Ice Cream was a regional company in the Pittsburgh area. Hagen Daz is based out of New York. Similar spelled names, but different identities.
i always appreciate the uniform.
Thank you to all who tuned in live or catch the replay. I apologize for the awkward elements of this particular program, as there were multiple incursions from daily life that needed my immediate attention. To discover more on the Battle of Cold Harbor, i encourage starting with the sources listed in the bottom of this stream's description. I try to stream on Thursdays at 8 PM, so hopefully Uncut History #62 see things return to form.
Great video for some reason this one really struck a chord with me. I guess because we just had memorial day and D day is coming up. Awesome job appreciate your efforts. Keep up the great work.
plane #1 is right on the western side of the tunnel. I assume it was a lot steeper than now and was graded for the new portage rr that bypassed the planes.
It's good to see the lesser visited places getting covered. Keep up the good work young man.
Well done bud.
The valve gear does not push the pistons in & out. The pistons rotate the wheels. The wheels are connected to the valve gear in a complicated way, so that the valves admit steam to the cylinders (and release it from them). This action is timed so that the steam pushes the pistons in the cylinders at the proper moments to turn the wheels, either forward or backward.
Hey I send checks at least twice a year. To help them. Checks? Yup that way they don't pay money transfer fees or bank charges on cards. You can too. Bank charges are 4 dollars or more per hundred.
