The Bucktails at Cross Keys

In this episode, Andrew is on location in the Shenandoah Valley at the location of the battle of Cross Keys. This battlefield is used as the backdrop to talk about sharpshooters or light infantry use during the war. The unit as the center of this example is the famous Bucktails!
