Thanks for the report. Wish I was on site with you pards.

I attended and it was outstanding!

As an Irish man, born and raised, this poem brings a tear to my heart.

This is great. My husband and I need to get back down to visit the museum. We brought our boys there years ago.

Chamberlain was a renaissance man. I have read many books about him and he was a hero and a man before his time.

Remember the ghost of paul revere. Sadly, due to COVID restrictions in new England where they were popular, they couldnt financially continue. I got to see them three times during the pandemic. There concert had 10,000 people in portland, maone. "And then appeared our lion, he was roaring bayonets And we charged on down the mountain with what forces we had left 'Cause we're as steadfast as Katahdin, we're as hard as winter's rain Go straight to hell with your rebel yell, we are the boys of Maine!"

Well done! Added this to my list of things to visit soon. Thanks for sharing!

My 3rd great grandfather was admitted to this institution in his old age and resided there for about 2 years before returning home to Rhode Island where he passed. I’d imagine he came home as a hospice situation.

Hell yeah 😎

Tragic waste of life. Terrible that the son died. At least the father lived.

been there!!! as a USMC Veteran ret I love this video, I enjoy my monthly trips to Togus jsut read the walls of famous heros of Maine's past! this is soo cool!

wow!!!!!!!! amazing!!

It’s very well maintained, and so very interesting.

Good morning. Thank you so much for this. It’s very interesting and important.

Went to Petersburg battlefield on June 17th. I saw their monument and never knew their story and realized the 160th anniversary was the next day. So I went back and laid some flowers at 4:30PM when their assault began that day. No one else was there but hopefully we can spread their story so their sacrifice will never be forgotten.

a respected general in philipines even though phiippines and america in war general otis respected and admired our great general luna who also fought for freedom but betrayed by our politician (corrupted)

Litchfield was where Benjamin Franklin's son was kept during the revolutionary war

Were they offered medals to stay? Or were they awarded MOH's for staying?

An inspiration to our nation even today

Joshua Chamberlain A Solder Great General And A Leader Of Men

Stevens's 5th Maine "Battery Insult." Great Great Grandpa was there.

Pretty cool, I like civil war history

Yet he was also a so-so to bad commander with battles like Chancellorsville and Gettysburg being the low points. Decent Bridge Commander, bad Corps Commander and didn't really have an impact as an Army Commander.

Colonial Chamberlain would never down play the performance of his men nor would he elevate himself above any in his command. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain is the true definition of a citizen soldier. God bless his memory and all who served by his side. 🇺🇸 🕯 🇺🇸

My mother an 18 year old Caucasian woman attended Howard University in the 1940's. I just found this out recently she's going to be 93 years old this month. She told me this was her first college I never knew this.

He was the second husband of my 7th cousin Sarah Foster Prince

Another fine video of soldiers art during the war. Thanks

Very good video! Definitely sharing with others

Everyone should watch the PBS Documentary “Death and the Civil War”, it is a fascinating look at the results of that Horrific American Conflict that changed the way America looked at Death!!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I have 2 ancestors who served in the 27th Me. Joshua C Spencer, Enlisted in Co B on September 10th 1862 and was mustered out on July 17th 1863 in Portland Maine. and Joseph T Spencer, also of South Berwick Maine. Enlisted on September 10th 1862 Co. B left service on July 17th 1863 .

Why is an artillery unit acting as infantry?

Chamberlain was a hero, revisionist historians and people with grudges are his only critics. The men that knew him supported him.

Apprec this! General Ellis Spear was my husband’s ggf. My FIL Abbott Spear dedicated much of his life to getting ‘The Civil War Recollections of General Ellis Spear’ published.

This is just one small bit of Alden's navy service. He's buried in Portland's Eastern Cemetery. Tour guides there can tell more about him.

Those men were some true Mainers.

Thank you for this. I have been tracing my GGG Uncle, Stephen Barker, who was there with Co D at Gettysburg. Stephen began the war as a sergeant and was promoted to Captain after Gettysburg. He lost a leg at North Anna, spent a year and a half in a Washington Hospital and the died in Monmouth ME on his way home to Island Falls.

As a reenactor I believe that GOD had blessed these ladies because the kept the soldiers moral high. 😌 🇺🇸

Just a question I did 17 years in the Royal Australia Infantry Corp so field conditions I understand, it use to be a standard procedure to sterilise eating utensils in biolibg water did the civil war veterans do the same.
