Interesting, just like in the day, when spectators would watch from afar
You can click the pice and get a panorama

I talked with the curator of a small civil war museum just west of Durham, NC. He was a volunteer as well, kept a full beard, ready fr the militia

But he was a surreptitious open minded fellow
I gave him an earful about my own military experience.

You couldn't stage a scene like that with urban chaos
or guerrilla warfare

this style of military maneuvers is also very theatrical
therefore the nostalgia
