@@joecoe8452 You should really read a bit more history. About 90 % of the Confederate army were "dirt farmers", they could hardly afford their uniform. It would how ever, be more historical if they marched with the Bonnie Blue Flag.
As a ex professional Australian soldier, I think it an absolute honour to witness the confederate enactors pay a salute to the union boys. Well bloody done lads! Respect!
Yep it's truly sad. All those young men dying in Americas biggest mistake because of bad politics of the time. During the 1920s reunion at Gettysburg both sides actually met and from all accounts were very peaceful towards each other shaking hands and singing songs having a grand old time. After fighting a 4 year war and somehow surviving it I doubt any of them cared about the damn politics. They were just happy to be alive. I wish people could be more decent towards each other even if we have different opinions. I think that's what the soilders of the American Civil War would want us to be about.
Indeed, but sad so few would even notice what was happening…. You may find this interesting. Cadets from VMI are the only military academy cadets permitted to March with fixed bayonets, because they were the only cadets to fight in any war. About 250 cadets fought in the battle of new market, and about 10 died.
They had just enjoyed small mountains of griddle cakes with molasses and fresh fruit...remember, these boys were living off the "generosity" of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania prior to their battle.
Marching in front: President Jefferson Davis, General Lee, General Jackson, General Armistead, General Longstreat, General Pickett, General Kemper and General Alexander. On horse: General Stuard. Very nice.
Respect to the Irish soldiers who fought along side our boys wearing the grey. No matter what political scheme the world will come up with the south will not be oppressed into forgetting.
I know it's been 11 years but thankyou for sharing. Although I'm from the uk I feel oddly at home watching the confederate re-enactors. Always loved the South always will. Love to you all
As someone who has marched in several parades, I know that you should always put the horses at the back end of a parade! Otherwise, you have to be very watchful for road apples.
totally love parades like this. It is always great to see dedicated people who does a great work of showing history in a visual way. Just hope that it will inspire more people to study history in college.
My ancestors were Southern Unionists, which, to them meant, “we do not desire to see our neighbours in the South mistreated, and, therefore, we are not going to take up arms against them; but on the other hand, we are not going to shoot at the flag of our fathers”, but to everyone else just meant that both sides considered them the enemy. I am concerned we are heading towards a similarly devastating division in our country. So much hate and demonization of each other. I hope the hand of Providence guides us down a path of healing and understanding.
@@spartanwarrior1 with good rebel's reason! the yankees plundered and burned the south!! the northern yankee americans of 1776-1814 raised their arms against the flag of their fathers the british !! and their crown colonies!! this includes the laws of confederation!! so tell me who is the true traitor?
@@spartanwarrior1 aha I'm glad to see there's another who sees the Confederates as a BAD thing. Like damn dude am I going crazy or do I remember being taught that slavery is a DISGUSTING thing.
@@blake911 bruhhh it had everything to do with slavery they left the union because they thought slavery would be abolished in the union and they'd wrather fight letting thousands die wrather than just let it get abolished
Love reenactors. Some take it too seriously, but it's usually a great bunch of people to be with. I miss it tremendously! Preserve the history! Warts and all!
Some history revisionists would have the Confederacy removed from Civil War history so that it would be changed to read, "The Union Army fought another army that were baddies ." Which of course they were not !! The Confederate Army gave their all. They fought hard and with honor ! They deserve their rightful place of honor in American history and in the American heritage.
They weren't kicked...they ran out of ammunition and the Union had a steady supply of fresh immigrants coming into their ports daily...who knew nothing about the war. Lee stated the reason for surrender was due to, "overwhelming numbers and resources". Don't think that the Southerners were anything less than rough and tough... and expert marksmen. My 2nd great grandfather was wearing gray at Wilson's Creek and they kicked yankee ass all over those hills. .Given the state of this nation today...I'm positive if the yanks could see what it would become in 150 years....they'd be wearing gray too.
@@xboxgorgo18 youre a dumbass yankee losses were 3x that of the south. You cut off a peoples supply lines and blockade their ports eventually they'll have to surrender and a lot of good the north winning did. Look at the state of this degenerate godless nation now..
Myself and CSA unit were at the 135th in 1998, it was excellent, some of us vacationed out there 1 1/2 weeks before the event, one of the guys uncles had a farm north of Gettysburg, we had troops all over his property, tents, shelter half's etc. and better yet, he had an inground pool At big events it's always neat to see the Sutler tents city !
To be authentic about 25% of those soldier's shouldn't have worn boots or shoes. Stonewall Jackson marched his men 20 miles a day except Sunday during training. The night before Chancellorsville Jackson marched his men about 20 miles at night around the West Flank I believe of the Union Army then spread a attack line of two miles. Then they marched through about 2 miles of forest then ran up hills and fought and chased the Union Army all day long. About 30% we're barefooted. They we're some tough men but they did train for that. The faster you could move men the better your chances. If Stewart would have scouted at Gettysburg and not go the wrong way as he did at Chancellorsville Confederates probably would have won Gettysburg.
@@wendigoairsoftreenactment9303 It wasn't his fault. He didn't want to attack that position. Picket just followed Orders. He did want to attack from the flank but wasn't allowed to. Longstreet tried to talk Lee out of the Attack and redeploy between Washington and the Army of the Potomac. Lee refused because men has died to take the ground the Southern Army was occupying.

Hell yeah no matter what happens, I'll always find the Confederacy so interesting and fascinating to learn about. Soon I hope to get into possible war reenactments.
You don't see this kind of pride in the north. This is southern pride, and they hold tradition sacred. God bless those men in grey. Be proud of them and be proud of yourself for believing that history must be kept alive.

you british sure know your code when it comes to traditional confederate clothing accroutments and civil war arms and ammunition and more. thank you for making history of the american civil war reenacting interesting!!!
Maybe viewers will try to see that Confederate uniforms are surprisingly similar to Austrian (the gray ones) and others to French (the gray ones). a soldier in a red cap) from that time. Flags (especially the one with the blue cross of St. Andrew on a white background) of the fleet of one country that the US currently does not like very much.
@@snipingflute4346 The flag of the entire Russian navy. Symbolism: the blue cross symbolizes the oceans separating the continents. Continents are white in this flag, like a blank sheet of paper, because seas and oceans are important for the navy. And now the symbolism of the flag of the southerners (Dixiland): the red (earth) continents of ONE WORLD are separated by the blue cross of the oceans. The stars symbolize the number of states of the Confederacy and their white color also their innocence - righteousness in the pursuit of freedom.
The 8th Alabama did, and a few others if I remember right. Might have been a zouave unit. Yankees had their Berdans that wore green, but they'd be in the North's section
The jacket prescribed for Infantry use was of the same design for all service men. The design itself depended entirely on the region, time, and the source of fabrics. The Eastern Theater uniform jacket was the Richmond Depot design, with three primary types issued throughout the war. The jacket varied from a cadet gray, piped and trimmed jacket, looking much like a pre-war militia jacket, to the jeans-cloth jacket that was worn out in six months. The materials and uniforms imported from England were also issued to the troops through this facility. The Western and Deep Southern facilities manufactured similar uniforms, being jeans-cloth, dyed with vegetable based grays, that would fade to brown or tan. The typical jackets issued had 5-7 button fronts, with collar and cuff trim that varied from era, region and source, and an outside pocket on occasion. The previous styles were the militia uniforms. These consisted of everything from the more sharp-looking jackets and coats, which resembled the French or Northern Infantry uniforms, to the no-flares "Battle-Shirt", meant for drilling and battles only. The uniform for these militia units varied by each company through a single county or parish, let alone the country itself. The militia uniforms were a menagerie of colors, from Cadet gray, dark blue, and hunter green, to Reds, buffs and gold tones. The other variety of CS Army uniform jackets and coats is the Zouave. This jacket was meant to be loose-fitting and reflect the French-African Zouave units. There were several units to consist of this uniform, including the "Richmond Zouaves", in the 44th Virginia Infantry Regiment, the "Wheat's Tigers", of the 1st Louisiana Special Battalion, and "Coppen's Zouaves", of Louisiana.
Well at the beginning of the war there was shortages for uniforms but by mid year of 1862 the Southern government was in full swing of getting clothing to their troops. All Southern states supplied clothing and made their own unique uniforms. That's why the South had so many different patterns. You will also see that not all wore gray but also had what was called butternut. It's the light brown color that was very common for some army groups. It depended on the state militia and what dye and fabric was used. At the beginning both sides Union and Confederate wore the same uniform which caused problems on the battlefields. Grey was chosen as the preferred color because the dye was already in large quantities in the South and was cheaper to make. Southern soilders would also take boots and belts from Union dead because leather was in short supply for the South. Most stock yards where cows were processed were in the North.

There were several units to consist of this uniform, including the "Richmond Zouaves", in the 44th Virginia Infantry Regiment, the "Wheat's Tigers", of the 1st Louisiana Special Battalion, and "Coppen's Zouaves", of Louisiana.

any one notice the rebs are all wearing fine boots and shoes
Well at the beginning of the war there was shortages for uniforms but by mid year of 1862 the Southern government was in full swing of getting clothing to their troops. All Southern states supplied clothing and made their own unique uniforms. That's why the South had so many different patterns. You will also see that not all wore gray but also had what was called butternut. It's the light brown color that was very common for some army groups. It depended on the state militia and what dye and fabric was used. At the beginning both sides Union and Confederate wore the same uniform which caused problems on the battlefields. Grey was chosen as the preferred color because the dye was already in large quantities in the South and was cheaper to make. Southern soilders would also take boots and belts from Union dead because leather was in short supply for the South. Most stock yards where cows were processed were in the North.
President Lincoln’s favorite song was “ DIXIE”
I believe the last civil war soldier died around 1956 I think he was a union officer.
