On this episode of The Civil War Regiments Podcast, I'm joined by Jeff Baldwin and Mike Jones, of First Section, an authentic horse-drawn artillery living history organization. We discuss the origins of the unit, and the work and preparations involved in recreating Civil War artillery accurately. We also deep dive in reflections on their recent successful event, We Soon Got Proud.
