Mr Smith, I can listen to you all day. You make the events come alive with your verbiage. Thank you for sharing this information. Till next time.

BLESS THE COLLEGE GUARDS! They took the initiative and did the best that they could under the circumstances.

The phosphorus fire that March night in 1979 was a towering, blazing white sheet of flame that so completely blocked the view of the corner where the monument stands that bystanders couldn't even see the monument, the lawn, or the Meade School behind it. It's remarkable that the monument wasn't destroyed. (At the time, I lived a block away on Springs Avenue and ran into the street when the first firefighters and the State Police arrived.)

First, I have to commend whoever was responsible for the sound effects LOL. Thank you for that, it put an unexpected smile on my face. Second, Tim did a great talk at the New Oxford station about that accident, I really enjoyed it; so I really liked this tie-in. Last, whew, add this to the list of Tim-isms! "I'll tell you who's going to disagree with that: *I* am gonna disagree with that!" LOL

Another great video, Tim! Your reading of some of the speeches given at the dedication prove that blow hard politicians are not just a feature of current times but have been with us since Washington's day and before. I have driven by this monument dozens of times and have never stopped to examine it. Another one added to the list.....

If not for the vehicles, traffic signs, and lights, it looks like Tim just stepped out of a painting. Awesome video...as always.

My great grandad was green solider from Penn College in Co A. JC Hill. He was captured by Jubals men. Did his best.

I didn’t see the name Pennypacker listed in the paper clipping nor on the plaque. Is he related to young General Galusha Pennypacker from the Philadelphia area?

Samuel Pennypacker was in Company F, from Montgomery County.

Another great video. I had two 4x cousins in the 26th that were captured by the Confederates. We assume they were part of the men that were told to go home to their mothers by the General.
