I went to the Huntington Beach Historical Society Civil War Reenactment today for a short while, it really gave an appreciation of the terrible conditions the fighters endured. Up close, no cover at all, just aim and shoot and hope they're not accurate.

It was over 90 degrees today so I only stayed a short time, here are a few shots that hopefully tell part of the story.

Thanks for looking,
BOB

Very nice, Bob. Saw this advertised and thought about going, but just a little too hot for me. Glad you braved the heat for a little bit, as I enjoyed seeing these.

Thanks Fred, between the heat and the cannons roaring, we left soon after the battle started.

Sounds like fun thing to shoot if not for the heat. Why is that fellow on the ground in the last photo?

In my humble opinion these things glorify war and there was not a more horrible war then the Civil War. One was enough for me!

In fact they don't glorify war, just the opposite they show the horror of the war. Regardless, this is an important part of our history that shouldn't be forgotten.
