I absolutely love your dedication to history. In your last video you had me in tears. I've never seen anyone who cares so deeply about the topic such as yourself. Your ways to speak to the camera are astounding. I hope this channel reaches greater heights in the future. Thank you for the great content.
@@BrandonF You're very welcome. There's this historical channel known as Mark Felton Productions, he does many videos about ww1, ww2(mostly ww2,) and the cold war. I highly recommend him to you!
@@BrandonF I love your channel man, you are one of the best youtubers I know whom study history and make videos about it. If I knew you in person we would have such nice conversations as from a 16 y/o perspective, there is much I have learned and such. Keep up the good work!
@@ethanfoster5914 Well, if we have internet in my country, but unfortunately it is the worst in latin America, and it is slow, but we are not isolated yet ... Greetings!
Love the video and I look forward to hearing some commentary about this video. One thing I wonder about in the video, it appears that the officers lost control of the men once shots where fired. Any idea if this was common to happen? And similarly what would/might happen if all officers where killed?
Zachary123W this was incredibly common among lower ranking officers or undisciplined soldiers in the field of battle. Typically only the elite soldiers held their line and even then they knew it could only go so far. Now if all the officers were killed then the men would be pretty lost and disarrayed. One of the main reasons that the US won a lot of battles was because of geurrilla tactics and skirmishers sniping the officers before battle. Making the enemy into a bunch of chaotic soldiers running around just shooting
Question, when on campaign, would music like that being played in the video accompany the daily marching? Or was it not as organized of an ordeal as the battlefield?
Hey I'm a history buff (I got a degree in it even lol), live in the Boston area, and would love to come out to one of these reenactments. Is there some kind of calendar or list of these events I could check out in the area and plan to come out to?
-The british want to seize weapon-depots on the countryside -militia assembles on a field in lexington out of protest -british expeditionary forces demand the rebels surrender their guns -militia refuses -british fix bajonets and prepare to disarm the milita if necessary by force -someone opens fire( presumably a hidden sniper ) -the british start panicking and open fire on the milita -a lot of militiamen flee to the nearest towns and tell what happened resulting in the mobilization of all nearby militias and the battle of concord -the british hade to retreat from concord since they were attacked from all sides by angry militiamen.
Hmm I've read that some soldiers didn't like music and drumming because it drowned out orders and commands. It doesn't in this. I can hear the orders quite clearly above the drumming and fifing.
And from this video I feel also the pride and martial spirit of the soldier. His connection with his fellows, NCOs and officers. And also the alien and contemptuous nature of the enemy.
I didn’t think the soldiers swung their arms when marching back then? I thought the arms were kept rigid to the side of the body? Great spectacle to watch though.
Not quite rigid, that is more of a Victorian/early 20th century idea. However there was not a formalized swing, either. They were simply left hanging to the side more casually, a light swing permitted as natural.
4:12 I had no idea the tradition of painting double yellow lines down the center of roads went back to colonial times. Also, spoiler alert: Your side loses the war. 😜

There were no drummers at the real battle.

Tempo issues, but not bad
Oh shit, you were there? Lemme try and find you on my footage!
Ironwood became a general because of Lexington. Winter would be proud.
Marching with Fife and drum always makes me smile

Tomorrow is the anniversary of Culloden, you doing anything special for it?
Wait, the Battles of Lexington and Concord were on April 19. You're 3 days early.
This would have been a reenactment on the day of Massachusetts state holiday, which is on the third Monday in April.
Pretty funny looking at this, after your most recent video on how drums were most certainly not used while marching to the Lexington Green
Good to see you Brandon serving king and country
I spotted a historical innacuracy: In the 18th century 'huzzah' was pronounced 'huzzay'.
Indeed it was! Something I've been intending to make a video on for some time, now.
“Are you daft?”
A little. But I didn't dare say that to the NCO!
Huzzah to the Kings men!!
I have full confidence that you'll continue pursuit of the rebels, and will soon extinguish this foolish uprising.
Yes! Rule Brittania!
Wonderful video as always
So british... the weather as well :P

Amazing video, by the way are you planning to do a first person view of WW1 reenactment?
Yes! As soon as I can make it to an event! Sadly there aren't too too many each year.
Great job on the video Brandon.
Wow, the reenactors are actually falling to the ground. Finally a realistic play.
It's all fun till that long road back to Boston!
Fascinating to see the action from the restricted perspective of the common soldier.
What regiment where you in for this ? It looks like the 23rd I might be wrong.
10th Regiment, it's in the description.
Are you going to do this again? I really want to experience it live! Amazing!
very well done -thought I was gonna catch on musket ball but realized I was on my computer.
One American Rebel disliked this
Beautifully shot
Here we go again
Planning on being a commissioned officer or not? Would be nice to see the officer’s point of view
I actually might be promoted soon in the 54th to become a lieutenant. We'll see...
Amazing video as usual
Question, when on campaign, would music like that being played in the video accompany the daily marching? Or was it not as organized of an ordeal as the battlefield?
I'd have gone, but last year it was so commercial, with the announcer, so I assumed it would always be like that. Apparently I was wrong.
This is a great video, could you make more like these? I would like to join a reenactment community as a british regular later.
JHouse171has some good first person reenactment videos.
The Yankee Doodle was already being played in Lexington? Or what they played in the end was just a similar beat?
@@Avvakoum_ indeed
The real question is why hasn't Brandon joined the Armchair's discord server?
Thanks for the reminder!
Shit. Did I miss battle road already? Why isn’t it ever on the 19th like it should be.
I think Steve Carell was with the 10th as well at one time.
2:46 Armed men Whyyy?
This was well done!👍
Great to see my old army

Splendid! I wish that I'd been there.
Greetings from Massachusetts!
Why did you cut out the ending volley and the HUZZAH?
Brandon, have you been to the American Revolutionary War museum in Yorktown, Virginia?
I've seen this movie before. You guys lose.
So when’s the commentary version coming out! And I see you took orders from the legend himself Winston Stone
Within the next few days I'd expect!
Brandon Looking forward to it as well as sharing the field again soon
From the pov of a British soldier with serious vision problems that were probably untreatable at the time.
But, what would John and Samuel Adams say?
Fie upon yon Lobsters, froward knaves the lot of them.
I'll be darned if those muskets look damn good firing in that light
Is the camera hidden in the hat?
For king and country huzzah
This beat fire!!
Are you going to the spirit of Vincennes Rendezvous?
On 2 sides at the same time wow.
Forgot to wake up in time this year, was very disappointed
There's always next year, at the least!

No one still knows who fire "the shot that was heard around the World" that day.
@Better Dead than Red No one really knows for sure. That is one of the mysteries of the Revolutionary War.
Can someone give us a run down on what's happening in this seen?
To start with i'm a little confused at 1:28
-The british want to seize weapon-depots on the countryside
-militia assembles on a field in lexington out of protest
-british expeditionary forces demand the rebels surrender their guns
-militia refuses
-british fix bajonets and prepare to disarm the milita if necessary by force
-someone opens fire( presumably a hidden sniper )
-the british start panicking and open fire on the milita
-a lot of militiamen flee to the nearest towns and tell what happened resulting in the mobilization of all nearby militias and the battle of concord
-the british hade to retreat from concord since they were attacked from all sides by angry militiamen.
awesome
Huzzahhhhh.. guys hat falls off LOL
The begging of the end of thoose darned rebals oh wait we lost?
Hmm I've read that some soldiers didn't like music and drumming because it drowned out orders and commands. It doesn't in this. I can hear the orders quite clearly above the drumming and fifing.
It's all about projection of the voice.

3rd like! Yes! Amazing video deserves an amazing like.
YESSSS
Are you going to analyze the historical accuracy of this video?
the lack of machine guns is truly disappointing
Is there another part with the British running from the colonials at Concord or no?
Not from me I'm afraid, no.
I didn’t think the soldiers swung their arms when marching back then? I thought the arms were kept rigid to the side of the body? Great spectacle to watch though.

Thanks Brandon, informative as ever. Love the video content you provide, especially as a Brit it’s nice to get a balanced view on things for once.
When will the videos of battle road be posted?
Probably in the next day or two. That footage isn't as good unfortunately, but I'll edit together all of the best bits!
ok! I hade sooo much fun!
Illegal "assault" weapons do not please the crown*. * Intentional lower case.

But of all the worlds great evils there’s none that can compare. With the towe rowe rowe rowe rowe rowe, of the BRITISH GRENADIERS!
