I'm a little bit late to this post (Three years) , but as much as this song, I hate the dang cavalry. Real soldiers walk their way to battle. Much love from a reenactor, thanks for the great music
My mother was from a family in Kentucky that stayed neutral in the Civil War and were also against involvement in foreign wars. She used to sing a version of this opposing the first World War that, as I recall, went "I don't want to march with the infantry, ride with the cavalry, shoot with the artillery. I don't want to fly over Germany. I just wanna be friends."
Most of my family claims that this isn't history, but instead hate. But this is beautiful, heritage not hate. god bless the 2nd South Carolina String Band!

I am from the UK and most of my family is from the UK but deep down I have a deep southern side. I have 2 great grandfathers from the south. One was an American GI from Georgia. His family were from Georgia, the Carolinas and Virginia and my other great grandfathers side were from Texas and Alabama and I love to embrace my southern side by listening to southern music. It's one of the best to me
My wife is the same way she has many relatives that immigrated from the UK to the US with similar surnames and all. She's from the UK, but after being married to me, she found it funny seeing all her dna matches being in the US. As for me was opposite I'm born and raised from Texas, and most of my heritage is from Scotland & Ireland lol 😅
Do you have any information on him? Prehaps a name or some of the battles he may have fought in? I'm certianly intrested to hear! I love hearing the more personal stories of each solider. I had a realitive who was in the Army of Tennesse, but sadly other than that I've got nothing on him, I don't even know his name.
My great x4 grandfather was in the 45th Virginia infantry. Daniel Eli stockner. He passed 13 years before my grandpa was born. I have alot of info about him and copies of orignal documents. My great x 4 grandpa on my dads fathers side fought for south Carolina. Unfortunately not alot of info other than his family came from scotland in the early 1700s
Wonderful Folksongs from the 19th Century. Anyone who claims this band sings racist music are the racists. Those who claim others are racists are the true racists. A racists first reaction is name-calling. Fabulous work Gentlemen.

Having read Heros von Borcke's 'Memoirs of the Confederate War for Independence', I must say that it was y'alls rendition of 'Jine the Cavalry' that was playing in my head while imagining the campfire scenes in the book. Speaking of this, I encourage everyone who reads this to pick up a copy for themselves as it is fantastic!

Great song, loved it. Makes me proud to be 2nd generation cavalry. Y'all should look into doing The Yellow Rose of Texas, would love to hear y'all play it.
I love the band, Y'all do a great job at making music, but all the Re-enactments that my unit gose to are in Texas (my home state) and I would love it If y'all came down for a visit
Y’all come take a trip to Washington on the Brazos in Texas. We are where Texas became a republic in 1836! It’s a Museum and full time working ranch from 1850. You’d be very much welcome!
