During the 2020 Winter Lecture Series, John Hoptak delivered a great lecture about South Central Pa men who joined the famed 54th Massachusetts (available on this feed). After COVID shutdowns and a busy Summer, Matt and the gang finally got to sit down with John to further discuss the information he shared in his lecture, in addition to pointing out what the movie got right and got wrong. I hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed recording it.
