Here in INDIANA we love our HISTORY. FYI the youngest to serve in the Civil War a Boy from Indianapolis last name Black (a drummer) I believe his age was 7/8 his Drum is at the Indianapolis Children's museum he was injured in the war he later died several years later they believed from traumas from the war (now some of my facts are possibly off because I have had a stroke). The museum does have the drum & it is in storage right now but they take it out from time to time. IT is so important that we remember these wars/conflicts the things & of course these people so we don't repeat history. GOD BLESS YOU ✝️🇺🇸💖🚜

I can't say enough about your videos. The style of the videos, B-Roll shots and music transitions make all your videos very interesting to watch.

Honestly this place looks amazing. So many cool relics and documentations on things going all the way back to the revolutionary war, crazy to think they had those. Definitely will have to visit this place one day.

Fab museum so many interesting relics to see and the fact that it is free is incredible. Brilliant tour and commentary. Also very touching to see the apparatus your Grandad would of used.Thank you JD. However could you do something about the adverts or is it down to KZbin there were 5 irrelevant and irritating adverts.

[@TheHistoryUnderground]

Glad you enjoyed it. As far as the ads, KZbin controls what goes up. At least most of them are only 5 seconds :)

Interesting video. Had no idea this was in Indiana. They sure have a lot of artifacts. Even Hitler' s bust is scary.🤯

[@TheHistoryUnderground]

Yeah, I was really impressed with everything that they had in there.
