"This is the Place" Civil War Reenactment







Our family recently attended a Civil War reenactment at Heritage Park. We were able to see different warfare techniques, see the types of clothing they wore and we even got to touch some of the different guns that they used. We watched an open field battle and finished off with a battle taking place in a corn field. It really hit me hard to watch them battle one another in the corn field with houses surrounding them. This war really did take place right in their own backyards against enemies, family and friends.
