Your arms are heavy from the musket you've been carrying. You are ordered to march into battle. The fear sets in, as you see the enemy. The order is given to load. You are waiting for the command to fire. You hear the bullets pass your head. "Ready, Aim, Fire!" The smoke bursts from your musket, as you watch the enemy fall. But soon relize, it is also your men who fell. You know this is an re-enactment, but you think of the realness this battle has. "Living History," walks right in front of your eyes. the story of the Civil War and what it meant will never fail to touch the hearts of everyone. The Re-enactments are to recaptured the years of the Civil War and how it was for the soliders who fought dieing for what they believe in. Re-enactments are to teach those who dont understand or what to see what it was like to learn.
