Day under fire, The Battle of the Wilderness

[garyjd]

For those that may have missed this National Geographic "SPECIAL" that aired in April, I found that you can watch it via YOUTUBE. It's a pretty decent program. The uniforms are pretty well done with the exception of some small details on the Zouave uniforms that have been left out. Sorry could'nt pass up a chance to nit-pick. Enjoy. ~Gary

Can't see it here in the UK "Copyright restrictions", shame, I would've liked to have watched that.

So if you go to YOUTUBE and type in Day UNDER FIRE, Civil War it still won't come up? Shame, sorry to hear it. ~Gary

All I can get is this 1.54 min compilation,

Hi Guys

Looks very interesting Gary. We will just have to keep checking the National Geographic channel Roger, it will be shown in the U.K. eventually.

Can't resist. This broke me up. "We can Stop Walmart at the Wilderness."

I remember Bill Horan did a shadow box of the Wilderness battle for the Boston World Expo. I couldn't believe that he did not have the burning forest as a background which would have been perfect for a shadow box. I mean otherwise the piece was perfect but could have been any battle save for the one most striking element to earmark this particular battle.

Ok, I can wait for it to be shown over here but what I really need to know is did the Wal-Mart get built? I really iope not.

Thanks for the link Gary. I have the book about the Wilderness battle by Gordon C Rhea and found it very good.

Roger, I get the same message:

'This video is not available in your country....'

I had the same thing a couple of months back with music videos by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and it really annoyed me. It lasted a couple of months and then the restrictions were lifted. Perhaps the same will apply to this programme. We'll have to see in a month or two....

Cheers,
Jon.

"I'll have to write in down then, I will've forgot by then." Now that problem sounds familiar.

Thanks for link, Gary! Great stuff.

All the best,
Dan
