145th Anniversary of the Battle of Bentonville

From the March 25th Kinstin (NC) Free Press.

John Baucom of Yadkin County, NC, was a re-enactor in Co. I of the 28th NC Regiment, nicknamed the Yadkin Boys.

"This was my third time participating in the Bentonville re-enactment. We are allowed to fight on the actual battlefield site during the time of the year when the original battle took place. It's not very often you get to do that."

This was one of the big things that attracted me to drive a thousand miles to see it, along with the large number of re-enactors. You can't have re-enactments at national parks.
