- Re-enacting Retro - A very well-produced 125th Anniversary Re-enactment film of the long-running central Virginia event - on the original battlefield - from August 1987. It was a very hot event! Fought August 9th 1862.
We hope you enjoy. This is another in a series of postings on our TH-cam channel of a cool New series of Old videos -- featured only on here -- taken from a personal collection of re-enacting films and videos from the 1980s that can't be found anywhere else, or else we've tried to find them for nostalgia's sake, but did our own digging and presenting the results of our treasure hunt here. Some are taken from VHS originals or DVD transfers from those VHS copies. Originals were in Standard Def or Videotaped off of TV when they first aired. Some shot professionally and others by individuals with "portable" home video cameras on their shoulders.
Some Classic Re-enacting videos are already searchable on TH-cam, but we wanted to start a new series of some rarely or never before seen classics that either only aired once or where short lived and available only to a select few at the time. We hope you enjoy. These programs presented in this RE-ENACTING RETRO series are presented for the enjoyment of all and we don't claim them for ourselves.

Brave men all. Standing in line facing Minee fire.
I spotted two of the reenactors that were responsible for getting me and my Dad involved in reenacting all those years ago. Chuck and Jim of the 1st Delaware Infantry Company D. I'm still doing it today, now with my own family and we do Rev War too!
My great great uncle Warren Richmond aged 29, of the 7th Ohio regiment was killed at this battle on August 9th, 1862
Tom Cook I see. Well, my great great grandfathers fought in Sherman's army and was In the March to the Sea, we rolled right over the evil rebels
Jeff Curtis not evil sir. my great x3 uncles fought in the 24th Mississippi Infantry (one was a captain) and none of them owned slaves. on their own account they say they fought for dixie and that’s it.
Mr. Curtis, pay no heed to the ignorant. Is your brave ancestor buried in the Culpeper National Cemetery, or was his body recovered for burial in Ohio?
There's a very good chance that our ancestors faced off against each other then, as my own family sent five brothers to Cedar Run as a part of the 37th Virginia regiment, which faced the 7th Ohio across the field. I've actually had a chance to walk the battlefield, as I used to live just a few miles away in Orange, VA, and the feeling it gives is incredibly odd.
Respect to those who fought for the Union and death to the traitors who fought against my country, the United States of America.
my great great great grandfather was hit at cedar mt fighting with the 42 mass regiment and died 3 days later from gangrene. his father also fought in the battle was wounded but made it home to die about a year later. there is a gravestone in medway mass. with both there names on it. it reads [ he made his countrys cause his own ] but what cause it was is shrouded in history.
William Daniels Sorry more damnyankees didn’t die! Should have stated home.
Salute from Alabama to your ancestors
This was a Confederate Victory
When they listed the corps commanders I knew the Union was in trouble. A who's who of bad Union generals.
Very much enjoyed this one.
I was at this re-enactment.. It was on the original battlefield.. We encounter two ghosts. Not kidding.
Marcinmd1 dang that’s pretty cool, I’m working up money to become one since I’m 15
Walter Dumbrowski he means to be a re-enactor
@@brandondowd6470 what a ghost .
I had the same experience at Perryville Ky Battlefields, I heard voice and person standing there and calling me from the field. I was going to the bathroom, and it was dark and misty, and the camps was quiet. I got unnerved and went back to my tent.
now you got to tell the story..
ny great uncle was killed in that battle, pvt Charles bordwine, from saltville va, he was 19 years old
Good work, nice balanced presentation.
i guess im asking randomly but does anyone know a tool to get back into an Instagram account?
I was stupid forgot my password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me
@Joshua Damon Instablaster :)
@Philip Orlando Thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Philip Orlando it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my ass !
@Joshua Damon happy to help =)
My Great Great Great uncle Sergeant Thomas McCracken of the 16th North Carolina Infantry Regiment part of Penders brigade Hills Light Division fought at Cedar Mountain
My great grand uncle Private Christopher Hussey, co. B of 27th VA infantry would have been in this fight, They withrew in dissaray in one of the few times the Yankees partially got the better of them. Alot of stubborn Irishmen in that company from Alleghany county.
One of the best of the series
No medals from the South, all were heroes.
In Response To The Ad For Caroline Jones: Yeah? But, have you seen or heard Samantha Fish out of Kansas City? REAL DEAL. Ever been to Ricketts' Glen?
I used to walk on this Battlefield at least once a month for the last 5 years I lived in VA. Where was this filmed? There are two or three locations that look like it might have been filmed there and Culpeper, has grown , its still countryside for the most part but changing. I hate to think it changed so much in less than 40 years. My favorite historical marker now removed was of Jackson trying to rally his troops waving his sword above his head but it was rusted stuck to the scabbard so he was waving the sword and scabbard stuck to it. Cedar Mountain Battlefield under the Trust or whatever its called to be more inclusive of the Revolutionary battlefields among others has done a great job of preserving the battlefield opening trails etc. They put contributions to work.
I was there. It was filmed on the original battlefield which was at the time, private land. I haven’t been there recently. I attended two Cedar Mountain re-enactments. This one, and another a couple years before. Both were good events but, not surprising, it was hot in Virginia in August.
@@lowellwhite1603 The Civil War Trust had it for a while and still now, they are the same group but go by another name to include other wars like the Revolution. The last time I was there the main battle area was preserved and the markers are still there. They have some mock up cannons. And they have cut new trails in the woods. From the direction AP Hill and other units arrived on the field. The area was a year ago still mostly farm lands.
@@jebstuart1475 That was one of the few re-enactments on the original battlefield that I participated in. Others included New Market, Sayler’s Creek, Perryville KY, Champion Hill MS and Resaca GA. These were either on state or private land. The Federal Government doesn’t allow re-enactments on National Park land although they did allow some movie making for Gettysburg in 1991 which I was at for Pickett’s Charge week in August, 1992.
The fact that General A.P. Hill wore his red shirt reminds me of a joke I've heard:
A Corsair frigate is sailing the sea in late 1700s.
All of a sudden, the vigie said "Captain, there is one Spanish vessel, at stabbord"
The captain take a look with his telescope and says "well, let's heading towards it, we gonna attack them, so we can have some money"..
As the ship turns and gets closer to the vessel, some other ships "emerges" from the horizon. The vigie says "Captain, correction.. now 4 Spanish vessels in front of us !!"
"Mmh, this battle would be a bloody one, thinks the Captain, I don't want my men to see my blood in my shirt if I would be injured, that will demoralizes them for sure.." so he tells
his aide "please mate, give me my red shirt.."
As he achieves to button the red shirt, he heard again the voice of the vigie: "Captain, correction, there is now 12 Spanish vessels in front of them !!"
The Captain give an eye with his telescope, and says to his aide: "Please mate, give me my brown trousers.." ^^
Just wondering why both sides had their bayonets attached
I hope no one got hurt
what a snowflake!
What's that soundtrack at the intro called?
I am in Australia. Are the American Civil War monuments all really being torn down?
some in the south. none in the north i know of.
Dennis Channells Dennis, listen and learn: there was no American civil war; the Brits had a civil war with York and Lancaster vying for the throne.
In America, the foul tyrant Lincoln invaded the Southern nation, The Confederate States, out of fear of losing the entire income of the filthy north from tarrifs.
The war was not about slavery; that is a yankee lie to justify their savagery; slavery was dying as it did worldwide. Slaves were expensive and lazy. The Industrial Revolution provided inexpensive reliable machines.
Secession was about slavery:
The war was the South defending herself against a vulgar invader.
lincoln began the war: it was Lincoln’s War.
@@TomCook-jw6ur O because lincoln fired back at ft sumter HMMMMM?
yea
@@TomCook-jw6ur very true words. Wasted on the snowflakes though.
Damn the yankees
and now all the monuments are being torn down. SAD, they were all Americans.
Erich Augustus von Mellenthin no. One side tried to kill America, and continue chattel slavery. Nothing sad about it. It is appropriate.
@filmsplicer I did read civil war history, and the main reason was slavery. It was in the Confederate constitution.
@filmsplicer yes but article I section IX says no law may be made to ban slavery and Article IV section III says all new states will allow slavery. Not to mention the ban was not on the sale of slaves but on bringing them from foreign nations. If you have any sources for your other claims I would be happy to look at them. Unfortunately FACT is not really a reliable source.
@filmsplicer Then you are arguing with the Confederates themselves.
Read the damn declarations of Causes.
You can read them yourself here;
www.battlefields.org/learn/primary-sources/declaration-causes-seceding-states
Or how about you listen to the Confederate VP?
But not to be tedious in enumerating the numerous changes for the better, allow me to allude to one other though last, not least. The new constitution has put at rest, forever, all the agitating questions relating to our peculiar institution African slavery as it exists amongst us the proper status of the negro in our form of civilization. *This was the immediate cause of the late rupture and present revolution.* Jefferson in his forecast, had anticipated this, as the "rock upon which the old Union would split." He was right. What was conjecture with him, is now a realized fact. But whether he fully comprehended the great truth upon which that rock stood and stands, may be doubted. The prevailing ideas entertained by him and most of the leading statesmen at the time of the formation of the old constitution, were that the enslavement of the African was in violation of the laws of nature; that it was wrong in principle, socially, morally, and politically. It was an evil they knew not well how to deal with, but the general opinion of the men of that day was that, somehow or other in the order of Providence, the institution would be evanescent and pass away. This idea, though not incorporated in the constitution, was the prevailing idea at that time. The constitution, it is true, secured every essential guarantee to the institution while it should last, and hence no argument can be justly urged against the constitutional guarantees thus secured, because of the common sentiment of the day. Those ideas, however, were fundamentally wrong. They rested upon the assumption of the equality of races. This was an error. It was a sandy foundation, and the government built upon it fell when the "storm came and the wind blew."
Our new government is founded upon exactly the opposite idea; its foundations are laid, its corner- stone rests, upon the great truth that the negro is not equal to the white man; that slavery subordination to the superior race is his natural and normal condition. *This, our new government, is the first, in the history of the world, based upon this great physical, philosophical, and moral truth.*
I am absolutely sick and tired of the Southern revisionism.
Honor your dead. Nothing wrong in that. All Confederate monuments before the Jim Crow era were monuments to the dead.
It wasn't until the Jim Crow era that the South erected monuments to the Confederacy.
General Lee, whom you all worship even told you not to erect monuments and become citizens of this great country again and let the wounds heal. Instead you all ignored him and picked at the scab for the next 154 years. Southern pride keeps them from admitting the truth.
@filmsplicer no it did not. It specifically allowed slave trade between the slave states.
We can better understand Pope's arrogance, because he went East after capturing a Confederate Garrison, at Island Number 10. Pope's Victory yielded the Surrender of 7,000 Confederate Prisoners, at the cost of fewer than 100 men. After 2nd Bull Run, Pope went West to Minnesota, where he directed wars against the Sioux.
The South shall rise again.
I hope so. Your chance will come when the US goes to war with Iran. If you guys can revolt at the perfect time then the US can be defeated.
Sadly the South will not rise again.
Tom Cockburn no it MUST. Or the Iranians will be screwed.
@@tomcockburn653 One can hope lol
@James Richardson the men fighting were not slave owners,they just wanted independence
Can't for the life of me understand why armies of that time with that kind of firepower would clash head-on in open territory. It's the dumbest thing I can even imagine. And then WW1? Generals should have all been hanged.
Yes, fighting in lines was an outdated strategy with the technology used during the Civil War. The most concise way of explaining why, that I can think of, is the fact that old ideas die hard when it comes to military strategy and it has been that way throughout history. Most notably, look at the monumental carnage caused by outdated offensive strategies during WW1 or the complete failure of outdated defense strategies (Maginot Line) during WW2.
The Bomb You took the words right out of my mouth. Take the repeating rifle like the Henry or Spencer Rifles, the War Department didn’t want to use them because of the cost of the rifles and ammunition. Tactics were the same, if you look at Generals like Pope or Banks, political officers who use “tried and true” tactics, caused a lot of issues until men like Sherman and Grant, professional soldiers who came along and change strategy and tactics.
the reason for it being that just 20 years earlier it was a good tactic. the introduction of rifled arms and artillery changed everything and all these generals were taught back in west point were napoleonic tactics with smoothbore muskets
There was no American civil war.
The British had a civil war between York and Lancaster fighting for the throne.
The Confederate nation did not want to control the Federal Government; just be left in peace.
That isnt even the English Civil War, lol war of the roses you're talking about. England's was in the 1600's.
Left in peace to sell, beat and rape human beings all under the guise of "property"
