    Wow! What a DETAILED examination of this battle! Many thanks to the THOUSANDS of re-enactors! I enjoyed the Hollywood production of "Gettysburg"....BUT for historical accuracy and realistic detail...this surpassed it!
  • @markdoutt6205
    I was in this film, 4:35 I’m the kid tossing the button to the women that we were just taking food from. I was around 14 years old around the filming for this. Was doing civil war reenacting for few years before this
  • @stevenbeatty37
    I'm not a scholar or even much of a student. But at times I got to almost imagine what it looked like, what it sounded like, and what it was like. Closest I'll ever come. Thank you LionHeart.
  • I've been a student of the War for 52 years. This is without a doubt one of the best docu-dramas I've ever seen. No "talking heads". You let the soldiers who took part in the battle speak for themselves! Few maps interrupting the narrative and few gaffs. Thank you for a quality production worth watching!
  • What an incredible production. This Is ART! Thank you, LionHeart
  • @OneLastHitB4IGo
    Can you imagine what that battlefield must have smelled like on July 3rd after 80-90 deg temperatures for 3 days? Re-enactments can only go so far, the reality of any battle like that is incomprehensible to us.
  • Excellent Work! I really have no words to describe what I saw here. You did the battle real justice! Thank You!
  • @clarezigner6028
    LionHeart: You ought to make a film about Tillie Pierce based on her book What A Girl Saw. This is one aspect of Gettysburg which does not get covered. Imagine a 15 year old girl witnessing this battle, a simple farm girl.
  • @allandavis8201
    The English civil war was brutal, bloody, and cost tens of thousands of lives, but the American civil war took those horrendous acts to a hole new level, but both wars were decidedly UNCIVIL. This offering from the re-enactors is a fantastic production and must have taken as much planning, if not more, than the original battles and skirmishes, thanks very much, it was a very interesting and informative production. 😀👍🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 P.S The sunset on the segment heralding the 2nd of July was beautiful, one of the nicest I have seen in my 50+ years, if it was that nice on tv then in person it must have been as sight to behold, lucky lucky people.

    This is like saving private Ryan of the civil war ! MUST WATCH !
  • @carolutley6523
    Loving these historical films! The History Channel has mostly 'reality' shows
  • @texasjoe557
    Thank you. I completely appreciate what was accomplished with this film
  • Simply put....INCREDIBLE!!👍 Outstanding film docudrama. Hats off to all involved with its production and other aspects
  • This has been one of the best most intense I have seen for years. Thank you aaALL
  • @jim7627
    God bless the victims, families and friends of this and all wars ...
  • @rayoeler3055
    Being today is July 3rd ,2020 ! I watched this with a clear mind of the importance the day was in 1863 ! ! But you must think of all that who died on both sides shall never be forgotten !
  • How did they get all those Civil War Reenacters together? That’s a Story in itself. Looks like 1000’s!
