Created on May 10, 2010 using FlipShare.Johnny Has Gone for a Soldier covered by James Taylor and Mark O'Connor.Shule Aroon.American civil war cannons at the Shiloh military state park.Buttermilk Hill.
The twelve-pound cannon "Napoleon" was the most popular smoothbore cannon used during the war. It was named after Napoleon III of France and was widely admired because of its safety, reliability, and killing power, especially at close range. It did not reach America until 1857. It was the last cast bronze gun used by an American army. The Federal version of the Napoleon can be recognized by the flared front end of the barrel, called the muzzle-swell. Confederate Napoleons were produced in at least six variations, most of which had straight muzzles, but at least eight catalogued survivors of 133 identified have muzzle swells. Additionally, four iron Confederate Napoleons produced by Tredegar Iron Works in Richmond have been identified, of an estimated 125 cast

about 10 years ago my daughter's school had a veterans day program. My girl and two of her friends performed this song. I had never heard it before. What a beautiful song. I miss my Katie tonight <3

I never knew there was an American version of Siuil a Ruin

Moving song. I love the feeling nostalgic songs about the sorrows of war give to the auditors.

Not to mention the resupply issues a number of types of guns mixed in a battery would entail...
-
Would cannon ever have been in mixed battery like this? How could guns with distinctly different effective ranges, ammo types used, calibers, etc., be expected to acquire the same target and bring max. firepower to bear on it? Understand that the Rebs might have had no choice but to mix guns, but the Good Guys surely didn' t need to...

This song is so moving. And I still think that it's supposed to be Bunker Hill instead of Buttermilk Hill, as in the Battle of Bunker Hill.
