Re-enacting Pictures

Most of these pictures were either taken by me, my parents, friends of mine,
or someone else, who's name I just can't recall!  I would, however, like to thank
the following people for their contributions of pictures: Ed Boyle, Molly Faulkner,
John McGarrigle, Larry Muscat Jr., Sally Rothenhaus, Mary Torbey, and Sid Unser.
Also, I would like to thank the Civil War News for permission to use the photos
from 140th Antietam (taken by Marilyn Ela) and Hamilton, NJ
(taken by Michael J. Mazzocchi).




Special Thanks

I'd like to specially thank the following people, for without their help, I would have never been able to make this site: Professor Marcia Englar, Jason Wickersty, and my wonderful parents, Peggy and Earl Heminitz.
