Rebel Yell: Europe's Biggest U.S. Civil War Reenactment​

: Video :

Every year, hundreds of people from across Europe and North America converge on a military base in Germany to re-fight a battle from the U.S. Civil War. There's cavalry, artillery, soldiers, and civilians, with meticulous attention to detail right down to the last button.

And we have Renaissance Fairs where we celebrate that history and heritage some. An interesting video, should anyone care to see, go to link.

I'm not sure I "get" all these "re-enactments".

For those who enjoy civil war, they may very well get their chances to experience it first-hand soon enough...!
