Flag of Secession, Beauregard Collection, Hood's Tea Kettle & More at Confederate Memorial Hall

[@MakeNumismaticsGreatAgain]

Amazing pieces! It's a shame these can't be viewed by people in person every day. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@I_Dont_Answer_Questions]

Can't have everything out all of the time... Well unless somebody is going to pony up for some massive fully climate controlled facilities.

[@michaeldouglas1243]

What an outstanding collection! Darn shame a general public viewer can't get to see such things in person. But thank you for giving us a view and taste if what is in storage. Thank you chris

[@lingmingching1]

Because the public acts stupidly.

[@Jerry-fn5nx]

WOW! Love all the artifacts. Love the Beauregard collection. Amazing 👍

[@NjK601]

My Father has my Great-Grandfathers helmet from WW2, and it's tiny, always surprises me when I see it.

[@terryeustice5399]

Kris and Chris this was a wonderful tour of artifacts in the Confederate Museum. The Tea pot and flag were my favorites. Thank you for sharing! 💯👊👍

[@jamestregler1584]

Glad to see my museum get some air time 😇 ! Thanks 👍

[@robertweber567]

I love these posts when we get to see artifacts from the back rooms of museums and relic shops. Well done Kris and Chris. Kris it is clear you know your stuff and easy to see you are really into this part of civil war history. I would love the chance to talk to you some day at a museum or a place like the Horse Soldier. BTW that tobacco is something I have never seen before. VERY COOL!!!

Wonderful tour ABT. I Visited Confederate Memorial Hall in 1966 when i was 15. I was from California and this was my first time in seeing items from the Civil War which being from California seemed so far away! As I had been memorializing the War from April 1961 thru April 1965 in Southern California (not very Confederate) the Memorial Hall was magical to me. Thanks

[@josephtrahan8045]

This museum is a real national treasure in a city that would close it if it could.

[@JeffreyLang-j5i]

APPRECIATE YOU ABT!!!

[@Redbaron_sites]

Thanks guys,I just ran across this and it was both fascinating and informative ❤!

[@jankovarik9714]

Behind-the-scenes tours are always the BEST!!! I am pea-green with envy that you were able to touch these pieces of history!

[@vickistevens423]

Fantastic video. Love the artifacts. Great job, Kris and Chris. Thanks for sharing these amazing artifacts with us.

[@vickistevens423]

Excellent video. Thank you for sharing the artifact collection with us. Great job, Kris and Chris.

[@mattpiepenburg8769]

Outstanding!!!

[@joeritchie4554]

This is so interesting. I lived 50 miles north of New Orleans for a number of years and never knew this museum was there. Wish I would have known so I could have visited it.

[@jankovarik9714]

Kris and Chris...THANK YOU!!!

[@levitculp2513]

extraordinary collection! Very impressive guide.

[@charlemagne9202]

Welcome to New Orleans

[@danreger8924]

Thank you for sharing! I love seeing the original artifacts.

[@tomjones2202]

I have, IN MY possession a SIGNED copy, a book by non other than Chris Mackowski!! , MINT condition! It's about the Battle of Chancellorsville.. I would be willing to part with it,, for say,,ONE MILLION dollars! Just say'n, I don't like parting with my old books but,,,I could use the greenbacks to go to one of the museums these two guys are talking about.. I must say the bright eyed guy in the black shirt looks somehow familiar... :):) lol Thanks guys for all the outstanding things you share with us that we'd NEVER otherwise get to see!

[@Kevinpotocki]

Great collection! I’m now completely convinced that Beauregard was the best dressed on either side during the civil war

[@leeatterberry1239]

What side lost is all that matters

[@Kevinpotocki]

@@leeatterberry1239 spot on🇺🇸😤

[@horizon42q]

Good one

[@COH2000]

I believe that Beauregard's frock coat is usually on display in the museum upstairs, but I been there many times and have not seen the China set or Hood's tea kettle. Wow.

[@jupite1888]

Greeting from Australia and so Amazing

[@VictoriaN72]

So impressive.

[@jwhiskey242]

The purple glasses were worn by men with syphilis. Cartridges existed for revolvers during the war.

[@michaeldavis8249]

Awesome history

[@Opakill1]

Tanks a ganz From Germany History kommst back😢

[@stephenellison2475]

Beautiful tour, thank you. Why didn't we get to see Beauregard's original first Battle Flag?

[@Tomatohater64]

Fabulous!

[@goldclaw626]

Cool indeed

[@michaelschuberth7802]

Confederate Memorial Hall Museum in New Orleans is a great place to visit when you're in NO. If I'm not mistaken the WWII museum is across the street. I must admit I found the Museum a bit on the sad side...after all we know the out come of the war and then to see the hopes and dreams these men had is rather sobering. So, it is a MUST visit if you love history.

[@TravisBrady-wn8fr]

Hood was born here in KY not far from where I live according to what I've read. He was an interesting soldier to say the least

[@btbb1816]

Thank You, hopefully to go along with this digital collection there is a room of VHS tapes, with one of the last VCR. lol. Records, records, records. No one will ever know aboot that walking stick aside from this video. is it written down somewhere? Is it on tape somewhere? Thank You. this is amazing.

[@larryvansullen3935]

You two are pretty but I wish you would focus camera on the artifacts

[@crippledcrow2384]

😂

[@NBClark78]

I really wish people would stop calling the Republic of Louisiana flag the flag of Louisiana secession. History is very clear about this. The flag of secession for Louisiana was either a white or blue field (accounts vary) with a single red star (like Georgia’s flag of secession) with the seal of Louisiana within the star. One newspaper account said the flag was like this, but with the addition of a banner above and a banner below, with the words “Equality in the Union” on top, and “Or Independence out of it” in the bottom scroll

[@tillvalhalla2271]

And to piggyback off of that, the Bonnie Blue flag originated in Louisiana as the banner of the Republic of West Florida.

[@LocalCoinReview]

Looks like you were struggling to put those blue gloves on. Ha , good video

[@AmericanBattlefieldTrust]

😆 indeed

[@phoenixroberts6986]

The Eagle Myth: Pointing the eagle to the left (the stars) is a mistake on the part of the flagmaker or uniform supplier, not a signal of war. The head of the eagle in the seal of the USA always points to the eagle's right, with the olive branch.

[@David-zq6ho]

As at his old plantation in la is on way to delcroy.

[@tyrian_baal]

16:24 The South had large stocks of Federal buttons that were used up even until the end of the war

[@robertcloonan7506]

Great museum but I felt like I was eavesdropping in on a conversation.

[@robertcloonan7506]

And the discussion about Davis, you could have mentioned that his last home and Presidential Museum is in Biloxi, about a 90 minute drive away.

[@ronpanozzo5213]

Great to see these items, only thing I would like to hear more about Americans such as the union army and not the traders in the south

[@AmericanBattlefieldTrust]

We have tons of videos featuring artifacts from Union soldiers.

[@ianwrobel6758]

how tall is that kettle? its massive

[@bigsarge2085]

👍

[@christopherweber9464]

Outstanding!!! Col. Wheat you are remember!!!

[@se7enthedge382]

1:32 - guy says housewives were carried in haversacks, but this isn’t true: the haversack was only meant for foodstuffs and eating materials. Housewives would just be carried either in a soldier’s pocket, or in their rucksack/ blanket roll.

[@bryantsnider3908]

Guess I missed where is this place located at

[@robertcloonan7506]

The Confederate Museum is in New Orleans just across the street from the World War Two museum.

[@virgilcain8152]

The La Matt revolver holds 6 rounds not 10, and it has a 20 gage shot gun cartridge, only one round at a time.

[@AmericanBattlefieldTrust]

The LeMat has a nine shot cylinder that revolves around a central separate shotgun barrel. Thus, 10 shots.

[@AmericanBattlefieldTrust]

The LaMat revolver has a 9-round cylinder that rotates around a central shotgun barrel containing a single shotgun cartridge, which gives it 10 rounds.

[@virgilcain8152]

I stand corrected! Thank you sir

[@I_Dont_Answer_Questions]

@@virgilcain8152 Work on your manners.

[@RandomDudeOYT]

So close to 400k!!

[@bigorange2082]

The only thing I hate about this video is it’s not four hours long. 😁

[@metalmyke1]

I doubt the tobacco was orig. that looked like a sticker on the label and tobacco is organic so it would deteriourate.

[@I_Dont_Answer_Questions]

Can always tell the people that have NEVER been around a tobacco leaf.

[@metalmyke1]

They have hilts on light sabres. Juts not that big.

[@itstur6otime771]

Historic pistol or not, be careful flagging that man!

[@Gitarzan66]

I still wear my hammer pants.

[@kingelvis5502]

Oh good. Another man with a ring tattoo on his arm.

[@leeatterberry1239]

Heck no the public can't view it they wouldn't know how to handle it they may damage it I get it

[@ScreamingSturmovik]

gold star on a red field? didn't know they were so fond of communism lol

[@billpugh58]

So when will MTG lead the poorest states into seceding from the Union? You know she wants to, she would be President tof the Arkanmississiorgia 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
