Great use of a camera in a car. For foreigners this is the first time we actually see the wilderness landscape. It is completely different to what we imagine from reading about the campaign. This is one reason why your videos are so educational. Thanks guys.
I served in a combat arms during OIF and it always amazes me the type of conviction and courage it took to fight in these tight formations knowing at any second your number could be punched. Love the content guys!
I'll be there starting tomorrow.
Great job fellas.
Thanks for the Germanna Foundation shout out!
great presentation, from the river to the point you finished at ....... look forward to the next one !!!
Amazing! I've read about this battle for sixty years and never had a clue. Thank you so much for this outstanding job...
First, gorgeous day! Second, those drone shots of the river area are stunning. Third, I’d say this is ABT’s Civil War version of Carpool Karaoke. Lastly, I’m ecstatic that the Dowdell Tavern property has been preserved. Well done!
Keep up the strong work, men! The people need this information.
Hats off to the 18th North Carolina for their great work on the evening of May 3, 1863. And all without night vision scopes.
We were actually members of Wilderness Preseidential Resort for YEARS, spent a lot of my childhood in that area in the mid 80s to mid 90s. I wonder how they staked out the land for use in the middle of all of this. Took my wife and daughter back there in 2016 and hiked all through the area.
Well done …quick Fact.. 40,000+ Canadians fought in the American Civil War 7,000 + Died. Sgt. Huff ( Canadian) was the Soldier who fatally Shot JEB Stuart.
Beautiful battlefield. Been there numerous times. Hope to get back sometime in May if I can.
Thanks!
Read Ernest B. Furgurson's, 'Chancellorsville 1863, The Souls of the Brave'.
Great series! Awesome job from all the team.. I’ve been studying the Civil War all my life and I’m amazed at how little I know and how much I’ve learned. The knowledge from all of you is amazing!
