@@amandadaniel9598 Doing ok. I loved this video. I am a writer-wannabe, and part of one book takes place at the Battle of Antietam. The main character was raised on the farm, so in his dreams on the night of September 16/17, he thinks himself back at home from the smells and sights of the farm. He arises early, as did the First Corps as they prepared for battle. One of the things you miss in the video...is smell. The traditional smells of animals, fields, but also human waste and horse manure. Thinking about that (if you have experienced it) as you watch the video will help bring history to life.
Great video! I'll be there tomorrow. this is my favorite CW batllefield and the Rangers and Volunteers at Antietam are top notch. I was fortunate to be part of a tour led by Gary 2 years ago, and it was so interesting and informative, assisting me with my research and my work making videos to map unit movements and locations. I cannot thank the ABT and NPS enough for preserving our history.

Love seeing Indiana regiments in the east get some attention. The 7th was the second regiment organized by the State and were at Philippi AND Petersburg - not many units were around for so long and in fighting capacity.
I Like Gary's enthusiasm and Dennis's robust statements. A good combination.
Absolutely
That's Great, that a descendant from the actual time and battle has done the homework and is now the resident expert. I love that.
I love the passion and energy given in each video it's never some ongoing monotone information
Any time Dennis Frye makes an appearance i stop what im doing and pay attention. This man is incredible.
This is one of the absolute best channels on TH-cam! Thank you for all of your effort and work.
I could watch and listen for hours. Great job
Superb presentation, as usual, Garry and Dennis.
Brilliant and interesting as ever 👍
Such beautiful country, nicely done gentleman!
Wonderful video. Thank you.

Hello Sam, how are you doing?
And 99 years later I came along!
I see what you did there, mine was 103 and 355 days after the event
Gary, you guys should sell the blue polos you are wearing. As a member of the Trust I’d love to get one!
Our store will be up and running again soon!

What's the new trail called ? And I highly recommend checking out the Sherrick farm trail and others along Antietam creek
Not aware it has a name. Poffenberger?
Just happened to come across this on Sept 17th 😳
This reminds me of the east woods battle with the 2nd Massachusetts Captain Gold Shaw fighting the Confederates there.
those cannon need the upper trunnion plates installed.
Actually. The battle of Schrute farms was the northern most battle of the Civil War
I didn’t pick up the Corps badge symbol?
Hello Joe, how are you doing?
It looked to my eye like a Sixth Corps symbol, the Greek Cross.
greeeat! can you do a special at Nicodemus Hights - it seems to be an iconic location and important for how battle unfolded too. thanks!!
