I am honored and forever grateful for the opportunity to tag along with a good friend to visit the location in which my ancestor fought. Being included in one of your videos let alone one about my family is an experience I’ll never forget. I was excited to see how the video would come together and you did not disappoint my friend. Thanks again James !!🇺🇸
@@DustinWiseM1 very grateful for not only you sharing your family’s story but I’m grateful for your friendship. It was a blast seeing this sight with you. Thanks for everything bud.
Dustin Glad you got to visit a battlefield where your ancestor fought, I've had the same feelings when I visit places where my ancestors fought. Check into the SUVCW Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War there are camps everywhere across the country. Good organization to learn and honor your ancestors.
thank you for the kind words. Funny enough , the way I found out about my ancestor to begin with was through a local SUVCW camp near me. Definitely a great organization and proud to be a member
I love these unit level stories about the large battles of the Civil War and really loved hearing Dustin talk about his ancestor that fought on that very ground. This is where history comes alive.
I appreciate the kind words, but all the credit goes to James for the idea and allowing me to just not fumble my words too bad in a couple minute window. Such a great experience.
WOW JAMES, you took this to another whole new level of bringing it home with reality... Having Dustin there and introduction to David Spencer and even his headstone with his 1989 death. Thank you brother... I LOVED IT. As a history lover, I just love knowing because I just need to know. lol Have a blessed day and blessings to you and yours to my freind... Carson
@@ProjectPast1565 FOR SURE... It felt extra special.... in your last video i was also very into it. I knew the Angel of Fredricksburg battle was killed at Chicamauga but now you filled in the gaps of when and where. Richard Kirklan was a true hero and testament to the deep inner part of humanity and the image of God in each of us.
Thanks for the reaearch. Our family (2) ancestors in the 21st ohio. Pvt John Croshaw died at chickamauga; Filmore Croshaw survived, walked away when the confederate friendly fire happened. They had the colt repeating rifle. We recently visited the battle field and stood at the ridge at the 21st Ohio monument.... 21st Ohio, company D (wood county Ohio)
Thanks for watching. I really appreciate you sharing your family’s story. I covered the 21st a little more in this video here if you’re interested. ua-cam.com/video/6xMZUy-CxZ8/v-deo.htmlsi=BODxflkARtMBTHUu
Once again, I appreciate your efforts to show the topography, including the steep slope. How would the Confederate soldiers ascend under fire, darkness, and some without shoes?
My gg granddad was in the Battle of Chickamauga. He was in Company H, 5th Alabama Cavalry. He suffered a wound to his foot. He survived the war and lived to be 92, passing away in 1923
There is a time capsule at the tower , will be opened in 2077 , this is inside the tower as you first walk in the entrance ,when you walk out from the tower monument there are several signs indicating where the brigades were one is Long's corps, brigade, company ? There are so many things that are not covered in these videos 😞😮😂 , you can't cover everything but if you could it would be very interesting.😊 Thanks for telling about what you have told in this video.😊 The civil war is so interesting.

Great video! Definitely liked getting the individual unit perspective of the battle. Fascinating stuff that I was unaware of.
@@joshh8245 always makes it more real when learning about individuals. Thanks for watching.
Very powerful
Great video enjoyed it
@@joewhitaker7602 happy to hear that! Thanks for watching.
Great video. Snodgrass Hill is well worth visiting--it's higher than one would think.
Thanks for watching! Seeing the terrain in person always helps piece things together a bit.
Loved hearing the personal connection
I do too. Makes it that much more real. Thanks for watching.
Excellent video, especially with someone with a personal connection to the ground. Great job
