Had attended a couple of Matts battlefield walks, and employed him as a guide... Greatly enjoy his company, expertise, and presentation... Good stuff...Hope to see him again soon when this Covid funk is all over...
I doubt I could come to GNMP and see it without doing it without Park Ranger Matt Atkinson, for he's the best of the best of the best as I can see so far, and all of the Park Rangers are super swell.
The videos are very good and Matt is very knowledgeable. NPS videos are very good, too . But I get confused regards the spacial orientation (which way is the camera facing, which direction is north/south. Where the group is at.) I feel editing in some maps with arrows would go a long way improving the presentations.
Forget the Coke Matt. You need to boil some coffee! Nothing like some Civil War style that'll make you bright eyed and bushy tailed. As usual, great presentation!
Wanna go Gettysburg Pennsylvania learned battle of Gettysburg address and and battlefield one of statues love pot of flowers at one pay my for respect for men frough in devil 's dent and lucky enough to catch an ghosts soldier's.
Sometimes, like here, personal insults remind me of why I don’t frequent social media sites. Bone heads like you think you can shoot off your digital mouth with impunity. Grow up; but better just go away.
Terrible Waste of a Talented Ranger: I think Matt is excellent as evidenced by the LRT and Peach Orchard presentations. But this one should just be deleted. First, the video person/crew didn’t mic Matt so hearing him is practically impossible. Second, while I’m sure the presentation is super you’ll never see the whole thing. Why is simple, the camera stopped working. If I were Matt I would do to the audio-video folks what the Confederates did to Dan Sickles and take them apart piece by piece.
StuffWriter Look, I get it but if you’re not up to the job, don’t try. A wireless mic was used in the PO presentation so I don’t get why it wasn’t here. But probably draining your only battery(?) was so incredibly amateurish sell the camera to someone who can afford another, or more, power pack. If you want to do this seriously be a Boy Scout and “Be Prepared.” Another embarrassment like this and you will be rightfully run off the park. If you have a defense to my comment give it/them to me and the other viewers. Otherwise we will run you out of the state. And stay away from the other CW Battlefields. These are places of honor and where you tread soldiers bled and died.
Patrick Ancona Oh Patty, “sweet cheeks,” “snowflake?” Did they let you out of the joint (your type) again for a long weekend? I hope the ankle bracelet isn’t too tight. Too bad Harvard is out of the question but I’m sure in your mind you can go anywhere you want. Just keep ducking the cops; call them sweet cheeks and I’m sure they’ll give you the cell-mate of your dreams. Butt (oops) I’m sure you will just love it. The unconditional kind just for you. I’ll let you go because I’m you’re ‘off’ anyway.
Despite all the bullshit and arrogant scree going on here, I agree with Douglas Hawkins about the sound. I love listening to Matt, emphasis on LISTENING which I can't do here. There're a few others where sadly the volume or sound quality is poor.
Matt, you're the best.
5 star Gettysburg ranger that he is
I love his voice and style. It is like listening to a good story.

Matts Great..he makes history Fun..
Well done as usual.
Matt is the best there is y’all alright!!
I totally want to see Matt!
Matt is the best of the best ranger one day I gonna go there
Can't hear him :(
Matt, how about a tour video about Gen AP Hill?
I grew up with Matt, wish I had taken the job offer with the NPS when it was offered.
Michael Roberts Great to see a fellow Mississippian since most of us are naturally good story tellers.

the Atkinson brigade!
Sound is horrible.
left us in suspense! what happened to the gamecocks?
Judging by the "unsolicited" comments;
It seems like some rangers have the backing of their family and friends.

Matt is getting balder and balder every year. What is his his wife saying about that?
"Better you than me."
William Blanton you're getting stupider and stupider every year, what's your wife say about that?
More surface area available for his solar-powered sex machine. That's what my wife says. -smh.

"Audio/visual folks"?? It's just me. I'm not sophisticated enough to have him wear a wireless mic.
