@55thMassachusetts Were you able to locate the remains of Colonel Shaw? I hope these men were finally given the kind of burial they deserved!

I'd like to piss on their graves.

Beautiful. I have researched my ancestors & the horror of their lives still hurts so bad. I don't know how 1 human can hurt another in such a horrific manner, let alone do it for 400 years, boggles my mind. This is beautiful & I thank you for sharing your journey! I have wet eyes for multiple reasons. I often feel I will never know my real name, my real beliefs,my real family etc. It is like we live a made up life that was handed to us. Not everyone will understand. Thank you & God Bless U.

My sincere apologies to artist Roy Paschal, for misspelling his name in the credits for this video.
Mr. Paschal, I believe he is going to be taking orders for the busts he sculpted for the soldiers found in this video.

Great video....though why would you thank Larry Cissna for this, what exactly did he have to do with what looks like a wonderful display of honor and professionalism by local SC relic hunters? I did enjoy it immensely though, well done.

@xisigmabro Thank You for your kind words. When I made this discovery in 1987, I never realized how much this find would change my life.
Larry Cissna was kind enough to let me use his website to raise money for the manufacturing cost of the South Carolina Historical Marker.
THANKS!
