best compliments from Germany, I love the South, since I was stationed as a soldier of the german airforce for special training in Texas and Mississippi. I've learned a lot of her history and was impressed by the pride of her people and the soldiers of the civil war, especially General Lee. What a Patriot, when he rejected Lincolns offer as a General of the Union, telling him he can not draw the sword against bis people. I wish I would have the chance some day to participate in such an event, if i only knew when and wehre it takes place.. Until then, i'm going to learn the best known songs from Dixie (lol)... So keep and honor your heritage, God bless you all ........
@@vegandolls Thank you for the hint. That was a good surprise, because I have seen an documentary by him on TV more than a decade ago. When I looked up the book in Amazon, I recognized his picture. He really seemes to by "THE" expert of the civil war. I will buy this book. So thanks again and have a good day.
This reenactment happens every year in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania! Gettysburg was one of the bloodiest battles of the war. This video shows the Camp Ball, but they also do battlefield reenactments. Everyone is always welcome :)
As a proud Southerner of the great state of Louisiana I gladly receive your greetings and in return wish you and yours all the best. Cheers from the Southland and may God bless Poland! P[>
And greetings in return from deep in the Southland of, albeit just north of New Orleans, Louisiana. Cheers my brother from the great Old Country! God Bless the UK and the US! P[>
I'm surprised the roof is still attached to the tent!! This is one of the most rollicking RUclipss ever. Love these songs..especially being played on period instruments. This band has no equal. Everyone was dressed in period clothing which made it all the more special and fun.
Now I understand how those boys crossed that field. The energy this produces cannot be held back. I’m ready to go screaming into battle right now lol 😂. If it produces this much energy 155 years later just imagine the energy they felt in 63!
I've got family that were both Union and Confederates and I can say with great pride after visiting most of the states I am proud where we come from. Before the times of the civil war most of my family came from Scotland and Ireland. There is a distinct Celtic sound to this music and it really brings my spirits up!

I must admit, I had been reenacting for 35 years at events from Olustee to school programs and roundtables in up state New York and in all that time the Southern gatherings have always been the best times and the best eating. Except for the memorials at Gettysburg, where the spread at the local churches is unbeatable. 🤷🏾♂️
The South is a mind set. I am born and breed in the South, fought for this country in War. But damn I'm a Rebel born and bred. That is what is in the air here, you don't tell me what to do! That simple, no need for a college education!
@@mikebilli5060 Did they spring up from the grass? No. They migrated there. Did they live peacefully before Whites arrived? No, they fought each other over land. We came and we bested everyone. Sore loser that you are. You lost vs Whites and now you're crying about it. We're better, get over it.
Pretty disrespectful thing to say considering how many men died in the civil war. Tired of hearing this line, it's just ignorant. We're more complacent as a nation than ever and no one is doing shit but talking. We're united in our complacency and addiction to technology. "But what about what I see on the news". Are you doing anything about it but seeing it on the news and bitching? No? Exactly
@@sagepage4793 Ignorant? Lol. Ok. Ireland is erupting over kids being stabbed by migrants. The Dutch farmers are in revolt because the government is taking away their land. France is on the verge of becoming an Israel/Palestine situation because of mass migration. Spain is about to erupt over a communist takeover. And here in the US Americans are being replaced so the Uniparty has perpetual power. If Europe and the US didn't have such a massive law enforcement presence there would be military conflict all over. We are completely divided and it's the stone cold truth. And it's only getting worse. Respect has nothing to do with it, but if you want to go there, disrespect is removing their memory and erasing them from history.
Beautiful day to see our southern confederate heritage I like to think of our confederate general Robert E Lee dancing a Walt’s with his southern bell 💛🙋♀️
I would think not...they have received their eternal reward...read C. S. Lewis’s Mere Christianity ✝️ ...why would there be ongoing animosity after the fact?
@@bisleyblackhawk1288 while Christians are promised eternal life in Heaven, God also said that you cannot go to Heaven until you have let go of absolutely EVERYTHING from the mortal realm. The reason there are still spirits there is that some of the dead soldiers had something in life that they couldn't let go of, such as an unfinished business, or a painful burden of something like a betrayal. Perhaps lasing hate for their enemy. Some spirits remain in the mortal realm because they don't even realize that they are dead. Also, God mentioned purgatory for some souls.
Your American civil war for freedom is like, remeber, that of our Corsican people against the Italians and the French. Gloria for Roberto Lee and Pasquale Paoli
I really like this kind of songs. In Europe it became The Dubliners and Pogues, but in the south i guess was the beginning of Country and western. But the kiddies dance at the start is just amazing! And i also love that there is yankee blue in the crowd.
@@anthonya7169 Dear Sir, i do think you do misunderstand me. What i meant whas that these songs are similar to the Irish, Scottish, Welsh and English that now counts as "Folk songs". I Europe they took a little bit of their own ways. I America they merged and got different aspects denending on which part they were.
There’s also a confederate party in the town of Santa Barbara do Oeste, in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. It’s made by the descendants of the Confederates who immigrated here after the civil war and it takes place in their cemetery (they couldn’t be buried in regular catholic cemeteries). It’s an awesome party!
You should look into the Olustee Battle reenactment that happens every year in North Florida in February. It's amazing. One of the largest Civil War reenactments in America if Im not mistaken. Fly into Orlando or Jacksonville, rent a car, and its a manageable drive to the battlefield (especially from Jacksonville). The local spectators(both white and black) boo loudly when the yankees take the field and cheer ferociously when the confederates come onto the field and drive the yankees back. It's something the media would never report on lol.
Can anyone provide me here with the lyrics to the song "Southern Soldier" as it was sung here? I love that song & would like to sing along with everyone else in the crowd. But I can't make out all the words with all the Rebel Yells going on. RSVP-ASAP as I play this video nearly every day since I found it.
I'll place my knapsack on my back My rifle on my shoulder I'll march away to the firing line And kill that Yankee soldier And kill that Yankee soldier I'll march away to the firing line And kill that Yankee soldier
I'll bid farewell to my wife and child Farewell to my aged mother And go and join in the bloody strife Till this cruel war is over Till this cruel war is over I'll go and join in the bloody strife Till this cruel war is over
If I am shot on the battlefield And I should not recover Oh, who will protect my wife and child And care for my aged mother And care for my aged mother Oh, who will protect my wife and child And care for my aged mother
And if our Southern cause is lost And Southern rights denied us We'll be ground beneath the tyrant's heel For our demands of justice For our demands of justice We'll be ground beneath the tyrant's heel For our demands of justice
Before the South shall bow her head Before the tyrants harm us I'll give my all to the Southern cause And die in the Southern army And die in the Southern army I'll give my all to the Southern cause And die in the Southern army
If I must die for my home and land My spirit will not falter Oh, here's my heart and here's my hand Upon my country's altar Upon my country's altar Oh, here's my heart and here's my hand Upon my country's altar
Then Heaven be with us in the strife Be with the Southern soldier We'll drive the mercenary horde Beyond our Southern border Beyond our Southern border We'll drive the mercenary horde Beyond our Southern border
So, I'll place my knapsack on my back My rifle on my shoulder I'll march away to the firing line And kill that Yankee soldier And kill that Yankee soldier I'll march away to the firing line And kill that Yankee soldier

I bet there are some really confused and excited spirits of dead soldiers on that field listening to that music.
The event was held near Gettysburg. Reenactments are rarely held on the actual battle grounds due to federal and state law.
