  • is that the real abe lincolin?

  • @nicholasbhicks No, Lincoln was killed in 1865.

  • Can you imagine the things these men endured and the stories they could have told? What a pity that most of us don't want to talk to old people when we're young. I deeply regret not asking my great grandmother about the family. She was born in 1879 in East Tennessee and would have known about what the family was doing during the war.

  • Very true, it would have been a great honor to hear what the men on both sides of the conflict had to say.

  • I truly find this a moving piece. Thanks for the video

  • Thank you for the response!

  • This song was written by a Confederate veteran many years after the war. It is NOT about yankees, and they have NO PLACE in this video or in any connection with this song!

  • Very nice video.

  • The photo slide show is great.

  • Very good thanks!

  • It's incredible the progress that those men saw in their lifetime. Cars, Airplanes and advancements in weaponry just to name a few.

  • Written by J.M. Carmichael, a veteran of the 15th Alabama Infantry, who took part in the assault on Little Round Top against the 20th Maine at Gettysburg on July 2, 1863, the song became a favorite with members of The United Confederate Veterans, However, it sentiments reflect those of every generation of aging veterans regardless of which war was theirs.

  • My great great grand father was a very intelligent man. His uncle or grand pa fought in the civil war. In 1954 he was asked by a colledge in PA to share some of his stories that his relative told him. He never got around to it and died a year later. I wish he would have. The tales would be so exciting and great to know about the confederacy even more than i do now.
