    Good afternoon gentlemen and ladies. This is Tim from Texas. I used to be from New York. I spent lots of time and Gettysburg in my life. I love the town. I spent a great deal of time in the horse Soldier any money as well. I have bought stuff from them and I have sold stuff to them. It's one of those must see places in Gettysburg. If you buy a piece of History, you are preserving history not only for yourself but for generations to come. Thanks for the good show guys

    I’ve spent my whole life in Chester, VA, midway between Richmond and Petersburg. As an avid lover of American history and with where I live, there’s no shortage of it, just wanted to say thank you all for the effort and passion you all put into these videos and preserving these stories. The American Civil War will always be a sore subject to most, but it cannot be forgotten. Outside of my own state’s Civil War sites, I’ve visited Chickamauga, Chattanooga, and Stone Mountain. Planning a long trip next year to show my out of state in-laws Fredericksburg/Chancellelorsville/Spotsylvania on to Winchester/Harpers Ferry then to Antietam and Gettysburg back down to DC and Manassas. Your videos (specially the Harpers Ferry) have been very enlightening, and after watching this video, I’ll have to lock up my wallet when in Gettysburg 😬🤣

    The original owner of the relic shop that is now The Horse Soldier was Chet Small, we used to stop at his shop back in the 70s early 80s when it was a red wooden shed in the backyard of his house. Returned to Gettysburg a couple of years ago for the first time in over 20 years and spent a total of at least a few hours in this shop.

    I have bought from and sold to The Horse Soldier in Gettysburg. Very reputable folks. They bought my entire collection of Gettysburg related artillery artifacts back in 1997. Offered a great deal for about 8 projectiles and shells (a couple of them not deactivated,...... had unpunched Borman fuses...I think the policy has changed now.).....but nonetheless..good people.

    14:52 I actually managed to get the CDV of General Zook next to the boots supposedly worn by him which you can see at the bottom left. All the other items you see there, including the CDV, are being consigned for someone, and I decided to ask them if they could ask that person if they'd be willing to sell that picture separately, and they did. Great image and a great buy!

    Good evening Gary a while back I had a visit to Gettysburg which I loved my third time there and I can't wait to get back but anyway I was talking to a gentleman who said he lived in the area and during world war II decided to pick his choice was a German concentration camp for a prison camp is this true please answer me it's making me nuts that they would do that for such a sacred ground

    • @AmericanBattlefieldTrust
      @AmericanBattlefieldTrust  4 роки тому

      Yes it's true. The government has long used federal lands during wartime. This prison (not concentration camp) was on the field of pickett's charge.

    Did i just witness a 20 minute business promotion for a store? Was Battlefield Trust funds used for this? Yet, only spent a seven minute rush job inside the Bottom House and no mention of battle details or the tragic loss of men in the burning barn! Not sure if i should donate to the trust fund, i think I'll just donate straight to the friends of the Battlefield to make sure my dollars get used properly. A little less Gettysburg and a little more every other Battlefield please!

    • @wendeln92
      @wendeln92 3 роки тому

      Agree with some of your coments, but I think they did the video in the store because, as Gary said at the beginning of the video, the Horse Soldier helped them with the collection of items that were part of the Lee's Headquarters Museum. And, while it is a private business, it is also a venue for helping to preserve history.
