As Civil War reenactor Scott Sturdivant says, "It's not for everybody. Not everybody wants to dress up in wool and run around in the 90 and 100 degree weather. It takes a special kind of person to want to do that." But, for Sturdivant and his mates in the 8th Virginia Infantry Reenactors, turning back the clock is a way of life. Several times each year, they gather with thousands of other Civil War enthusiasts to recreate area battles and encampments that happened over 150 years ago.
