As a college History major and former Marine officer, I enjoyed this presentation...and have enjoyed the whole Gettysburg lecture series here on RUclips. WMB,Jr. Bellflower, CA
Was the 23d Ohio armed with the Colt revolving rifle like the 21st Ohio? Ability to lead in battle seemed to run in the Harrison family; Benjamin Harrison's grandfather, William Henry Harrison, had a distinguished military career.
War is hell, yes. But war is sometimes necessary. Over 60 million people died between 1937 - 1945 to free Asia and Europe of oppression. The cause was just.

Thank you for this interesting lecture.
Great video. Thanks for the presentation. I found it very interesting since I am a presidential history buff.
Dan Vermilya ? The name is familya...
That's peculya.
ah, Benjamin Harrison.
reminds me of the story of Ben's father John Scott Harrison, and the 1878 body snatching event.
Need more comments. Too important of a subject to not have dialogue around

Is it me or should water bottles be outlawed during lectures? So annoying...
No they were not they had old conversion at the start of war then got Springfield's and Enfield's
I like how all four were Ohioans!
Benjamin Harrison was from Indiana
And if he'd included Grant, he'd be the fifth to be from Ohio! I had no idea of this fact til this video.
Wish he would talked about the 23rd Ohio at Cloyds Mountain they took heavy beating there they did a baynott charge killed Gen Jenkins there
i dig the talk but Benjamin Harrison did not get to the white house until 1888....not 1884. but interesting and enjoyed it!
How can one endure accept losing one million men. War is hell and it is wrong
It isnt wrong...its tragic. Sometimes, it must be done.
