You're right, our civil war reenactment group took part of the movie. I certainly wasn't Armistead in the movie, got that nickname from my group during a reenactment when I ran my sword through my hat.

Being a fan of civil war history, I got chills when we all marched for the union center....the cannon fire was amazing. It actually felt spooky, like reliving something glorious, yet terrible. Probably one of the best days of my life, over 17,000 men in uniform having a ball.
