What an outstanding collection! Darn shame a general public viewer can't get to see such things in person. But thank you for giving us a view and taste if what is in storage. Thank you chris

I love these posts when we get to see artifacts from the back rooms of museums and relic shops. Well done Kris and Chris. Kris it is clear you know your stuff and easy to see you are really into this part of civil war history. I would love the chance to talk to you some day at a museum or a place like the Horse Soldier. BTW that tobacco is something I have never seen before. VERY COOL!!!

Wonderful tour ABT. I Visited Confederate Memorial Hall in 1966 when i was 15. I was from California and this was my first time in seeing items from the Civil War which being from California seemed so far away! As I had been memorializing the War from April 1961 thru April 1965 in Southern California (not very Confederate) the Memorial Hall was magical to me. Thanks

I really wish people would stop calling the Republic of Louisiana flag the flag of Louisiana secession. History is very clear about this. The flag of secession for Louisiana was either a white or blue field (accounts vary) with a single red star (like Georgia’s flag of secession) with the seal of Louisiana within the star. One newspaper account said the flag was like this, but with the addition of a banner above and a banner below, with the words “Equality in the Union” on top, and “Or Independence out of it” in the bottom scroll

Confederate Memorial Hall Museum in New Orleans is a great place to visit when you're in NO. If I'm not mistaken the WWII museum is across the street. I must admit I found the Museum a bit on the sad side...after all we know the out come of the war and then to see the hopes and dreams these men had is rather sobering. So, it is a MUST visit if you love history.

Thank You, hopefully to go along with this digital collection there is a room of VHS tapes, with one of the last VCR. lol. Records, records, records. No one will ever know aboot that walking stick aside from this video. is it written down somewhere? Is it on tape somewhere? Thank You. this is amazing.

The Eagle Myth: Pointing the eagle to the left (the stars) is a mistake on the part of the flagmaker or uniform supplier, not a signal of war. The head of the eagle in the seal of the USA always points to the eagle's right, with the olive branch.

The La Matt revolver holds 6 rounds not 10, and it has a 20 gage shot gun cartridge, only one round at a time.

@AmericanBattlefieldTrust 25 күн бұрын

The LeMat has a nine shot cylinder that revolves around a central separate shotgun barrel. Thus, 10 shots.

@AmericanBattlefieldTrust 25 күн бұрын

The LaMat revolver has a 9-round cylinder that rotates around a central shotgun barrel containing a single shotgun cartridge, which gives it 10 rounds.

1:32 - guy says housewives were carried in haversacks, but this isn’t true: the haversack was only meant for foodstuffs and eating materials. Housewives would just be carried either in a soldier’s pocket, or in their rucksack/ blanket roll.

I doubt the tobacco was orig. that looked like a sticker on the label and tobacco is organic so it would deteriourate.
