    The USS Cairo ship and museum at Vicksburg are also very cool. Thanks for this stop on the tour. Having served in the Navy, I love ships. One hundred and twenty years later, our life was still guided by the bell.

    The CSS Neuse design was based on CSS Albemarle, and it was economical, effective and even elegant, putting two big guns in a short sloped casemate so that minimal armor was required. The hull design was quite simple, needing mostly carpentry skills rather than proper shipbuilder ones, and so could be build a cornfield.
    Things would have been very interesting had the Confederacy built a number of these ironclads in 1862 rather than 1864.

      all they needed for their independence is what they needed a few generations before, the french. the world would have been so much better off without the federal government we have now, I only wish people could have seen what is now coming before it was too late.

    Absolutely fascinating. I want to add where he said it was the only one you could get a gun deck level he is wrong. In the National Civil War Naval Museum in Columbus, Ga they have the remains of the CSS Jackson with very similar upper-level tubing denoting the casemate and Gundeck. If you have not gone you need to go check it out. And now the CSS Neuse is on my bucket list. I wanted to tell the Battlefield Trust guy to be quiet and let the guy who runs the place give the tour.

    Not shown in the video is if they would have opened up one of the exterior doors just outside the museum is a 1:1 scale replica of the Neuse...beautiful. You can go aboard, inside of it, and see everything. Too bad Garry didn't go check that out.

    I have to be honest and give some constructive criticism, Not the greatest host with the hat and blue shirt on…Boy he sure is jumpy. He’s too busy jumping all over the place trying to be the director telling the presenter where to look. That would be really frustrating. The presenter doesn’t need his direction. Let it be a organic and natural presentation. He doesn’t need to be always looking into the camera. The main presenter talking about the ship did a fantastic job. I’m sure being live has its challenges. Super cool video! Thank you. 👍

    Did they say what happened to the Iron top part of the ship? In another video of the replica across the street from this.. they mentioned the locals knew where it was in the river and often would fish off of it, and even some people dived inside it and recovered some artifacts.
    So what happened to the top part of the ship.
