Wisconsin is known for more than just cheese. We had one of the most badass brigades in Civil War History. The Iron Brigade.....never give up.

@wericification Wisconsin Iron Brigade FTW, =D

@wericification As one of the Alabama (or Tennessee) soldiers of Archer's brigade supposedly said when they saw the Iron Brigade approaching. "'Tain't no militia. It's those damned black-hatted fellows!"

1861-1865гг А ПО ПОЛЯМ ЖИРЕЕТ ВОРОНЬЁ-ВОЙНА ИДЁТ И НЕТ КОНЦА ЕЁ!!!

The Iron Brigade turned the outcome of the battle. The US still would have won the war without them,but they were one of the Northern units that the south was afraid of. So many have posted themes with the south as the victor even though they lost. The US won the Civil War.

@Crymson1 Sone thef fife and drums were playing is "Hell on the Wabash," very popular on both sides.
The last scene with all the men around Reynold's dead body looks like they are posing for a painting. Apparently all the fighting stopped while they got into perfect position.

@KnightOwl2006 In the dvd commentary track it is mentioned that the scene was actually imitating a painting by Don Troiani of Reynolds' death.
