That was something I wasn't paying too much attention to at the time of visit, but upon re-examining my photos it appears they may be. If they are painted, i presume the Park Service made this decision to preserve the barrels. I encountered six field pieces during my exploration of Monocacy. All gold. But have seen older photos of the battlefield of those pieces with the barrels that oxidized teal color we are so used to from visiting Gettysburg & Antietam.

@@RedoubtProductions1754 I suspect those guns are fake, i.e. reproductions. Why else would you paint something that doesn't require it. Given the way government agencies are always crying about needing money, they won't do anything they don't have to. Of course this all speculation, except for the crying about money lol

This is a remarkable presentation. At least as marvelous as this presentation is the knowledge, the commitment and the enthusiasm of these young presenters. That these young people are so devoted to the memory and the importance of these events at Gettysburg is a refreshing beacon of light to all historians of the Civil War as well as to historians in general. These young people are showing us that history is not dead and gone. History is crucial to understanding not just our past, but to an appreciation and understanding of our present. It is wonderful to imagine how grateful and excited the soldiers who participated in the monumental events of Gettysburg and especially those who gave the last full measure of their lives on these fields would be about the work, devotion and skill of these dedicated young folks of 2024.

Dude. Three years ago? If I were you, I’m on my way off this hurtling stone, but I would set my sights and efforts to several great History schools (B, MA, little bit of cool) and Thirdly, Your Doctorate from some great school, great reputation producing heavy hitters, already stoked, and determined to ride a magic carpet write into multiple service, historical and personalized adventures not available to the consensus gentum. Good work and practice, your delivery which already has a hook and grab, 0:00 could open multiple doors in many directions. I went to Clarion U, ‘95. Ain’t the half of it, beyond being gifted.. what I’ve seen is, if you do what you love, and love what you do, you’ll never work a day for the rest of your life. I know that your generation are more than prepared, they’re riled, ready, and eager to meet any challenges or threats. PS I read, when the student is ready, the teacher will appear. Even though usually only after you find yourself; but most times, well, keep your eyes open, help and guidance is often braided in the threads of hopelessness and tragedy, ready to be untangled and repaired. I hope I didn’t insult any boundaries, but if I did, please accept my peremptory apologies. Airborne

Also with whereni found the confederate position it had to be early in the battle or history has the lines blured but the confederate soldiers took up arms way closer to the mill than the battle maps show from what ive found they would be directly infront of there own cannons i looked and looked for the confederate line as per the map and couldn't find it then by accident one day just milling around on one of my permissions i sure enough called my buddy and said i found where they were 15 mins later i was digging round balls in a area that was missed thru the years this battle is very close in my heart its only about 5 mins from my house!

As a decendant of an XII and XX and later XXIII Corps veteran, your portrayal of XII Corps is more than insulting. The soldiers voted to retain the XII Corps badge for the XX Corps. The original XII Corps regiments were mustered at the start of the war and marched in the Grand Review after the victory. Also I Corps badge still lives on as the modern 1st Corps.

I shall be honest and say this is a biased ranking and I am not a fan of repurposing pre-existing corp badges. But at the end of the day, this stream was never going to give do justice on the performance of each corp. I'd suggest keeping your eyes out on the channel in the coming months as this stream has given me thoughts on doing a proper exploration of each union army infantry corp, because legacies such as that of the XX Corp deserve more recognition.

Hi Redoubt, very interesting video, thanks for the upload. I recently learnt why the 101st Airborne has the screaming eagle patch. Back in 1861 their mascot was an eagle called Old Abe. A funny piece I read - during the battle of Corinth, Mississippi, Confederate General Sterling Price remarked, "that bird must be captured or killed at all hazards, I would rather get that eagle than capture a whole brigade or a dozen battle flags."

@@RedoubtProductions1754 Yeah, I worded that wrong (I blame the poor standards in the English education system lol), Wisconsin was the territory of the original 101st Division and the insignia was inspired by Old Abe and the traditions of the 8th Wisconsin during the Civil War, but I am happy to be corrected on that.
