Civil War Reenactment Recreates Shiloh Battle in Tennessee
Civil War buffs staged a two day reenactment in Shiloh Tenn recreating the 1862 battle. About 40000 spectators watched as cavalry charged with swords and pistols and 66 cannons fired. Organizers faced parking traffic and insurance costs and planned to recoup 50000 by charging 3 per ticket. William Carrington of Durham NC spoke as a lieutenant with the 19th Alabama Infantry. The event aimed to bring history to life and help attendees grasp the conflict’s scale and tactics.
