Civil War Drill - Hardee's CS Stack Arms
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 лют 2024
- On location at the New Market Battlefield are CSA soldiers that would like to get some rest and coffee. But what do they do with their muskets so they are not laying in the dirt? Every soldier knew how to Stack Arms. There are many versions of this drill maneuver in the various manuals. Here, Will and these soldiers teach the version found in Rifle and Infantry Tactics Revised and Improved by Brigadier General W. J. Hardee, CS Army, which was published in 1862.

What an absolute great demonstration. Great job guys and fantastic channel.
Hope it helps!
I demonstrated the “In Nine Times” loading sequence with my 1861 Springfield to the 8th grade history class of the middle school I’m the principal of learning about the civil war. I’m a former history teacher myself and I will arrange a field trip to my property to demonstrate my 1861 Springfield “In Nine Times” drill. Load and shoot at two liters filled with water. Then allow the students to load and shoot “In Nine Times” drill where they load a Minie ball and shoot a two liter with water. With loading and handling a rifle musket at the time drills were very important.
This is probably the most needed tutorial in the entire reenacting hobby. The sheer number of people I've encountered who have no idea how to stack is... disappointing.
Its rather hard to practice solo at home, and if you only get to drill with your pards a few times a year...yeah...
@@AtlatlMan That is true. Still, there are ways. I practiced with three bits of wire bent into a lighting bolt shape until I had the concept down pat.
Hardee’s manual rahhhhh! Thank you guys for touching on this it was much needed for the hobby! Great work as always!
In my reenacting days, I remember the arguments on which method of stacking arms. I always preferred the Kentucky method.
I’m a reenactor with 3rd New Hampshire company C based in South Carolina. We just did the battle of Aiken and we did this for stack arms, although I think we called it the Kentucky Swing
My reenactment unit use this same drill for stacking arms.
We portray a Union unit.
We call this the Kentucky swing.
Thinking we did an immersion event in Tennessee in 2007 with these chaps then one at chickamuga NBP and lastly one at jekyll island, Georgia. Jekyll event cobbled boots with hob nails..
One of that bunch never paid for his hob nails !!😮😢
Great video Will. I met the Franklin at Olustee Florida last weekend! He was our Lieutenant. He was a cool dude!
Excellen, very well done--*good* living history. More like this, please! And more unit movement, too, please. All the cooking is great, the clothing is fantastic (especially the deep dive into specific units), but all of that is widely available, we need more careful attention to Hardee, Congdon, etc.
The Ellsworth Swing- the hell you say ! Bully episode.
Glad you enjoyed!
Great job boys God Bless the South
As a Union reenactor for 19 years, this looks so foreign to me. Thanks for the video. Always appreciate your uploads
This is so much easier than Casey's method.
I do mostly Federal so seeing this is so different! Great to see though
An exceptional video and much needed! I've been in many units when the stack arms debate takes off. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of it!
Truly appreciate the help!
Truly my pleasure and anytime!@@CivilWarDigitalDigest
I know Franklin. He's a good guy.
I've been searching the archives for where and when the 50th NC last received clothing,etc. Before the battle of Bentonville, nc in march of 1865. What I could find was that the last time the regiment received clothing was the 3rd quarter of 1864 (july-sept) while in Plymouth, nc. Approximately 400 jackets and nearly the same amount of pants. However, they did fight in savanna, GA and passed through Augusta a few months later. I'm not sure if they picked up anything there, for most of the stores had been diverted elsewhere before they got there. I can't find any records of any distributed clothing by the government after they until the surrender.
Forgive me for the lengthy post. I'm just trying to find the correct jacket and trousers for this unit during this time period. My forefathers that weren't in the 5th, 49th, and the 2nd NC Jr Reserves were of Co 'D', 50th NC from 1862 until the end of the war.
I would love to be pointed in the correct direction by any that help. I would love to have it tailored and complete before next spring (2025). Thank you so much for the awesome vids!!!
High five from smithfield, NC!
3:19 when will they learn after all these years?
