I'm 69. When I was a kid, I met one of them. I think he was 105 or more. He told me he was a drummer boy in the Civil War at a very young age.

[@Bernie5172]

how amazing.
Most of the soldiers couldnt read and write.
But they understood every drum beat

[@xzznnn845]

"alright we've come to kill you guys but first my man John will play this sick beat"

John Clem was 9 when he enlisted as a drummer boy in the union army. He was promoted to Sergeant at age thirteen for bravery at Chicamagua. Youngest soldier of the civil war.

[@doreekaplan2589]

Just read about him ....he was not allowed to enlist till he turned eleven. Before then for two years he was the soldiers mascot. They had a uniform cut to fit him and a rifle as well. Soldiers gave him thirteen dollars a month in donations to match their pay

[@HistoryBoy]

Thank you so much! This is amazing, as I portray a drummer boy at Civil War re-enactments!

[@TheLordMoyne]

Civil War surgeon Dr. Max Rossvally described a double amputation he performed on a wounded drummer boy after the battle of Gettysburg. His book was made into a movie "The Drummer Boy" in 2017. Dr. Rossvally's book can be read online here: www.middletownbiblechurch.org/helpseek/coulson.pdf

Why exactly is that a thing

[@michaelklein3148]

William H. Horsfall of Newport, Kentucky, was awarded the Medal of Honor for his heroic actions on May 21, 1862 at age 15 serving as a drummer in the 1st Kentucky Infantry. His CMOH citation reads simply, "Saved the life of a wounded officer lying between the lines." He is buried at Evergreen Cemetery, Southgate, Kentucky.

Underrated video, no one ever imagined a war nowadays without comms, radios, or SAT phones.

[@lisacooper3991]

So it was pretty much like Morse code and the tapping sounds of telegram signals..

[@1stva159]

Awesome presentation. Thanks.

[@joshlower1]

Imagine gesring this tune the. Being shot at the last beat.

[@kylequintana]

“Don’t shoot I’m just a drummer”
