The WORST Wounds from the Battle of Antietam 

Yeah they always put a graphic description on things as it would be too shocking for young people to see, but have more graphic images in video games they play or movies or TV series that are watched like the Walking dead and others that have heads cut off ,blood gushing from stumps, zombies ripping out chunks of flesh from their human victims,

When I was in school those pictures were in our history books and nothing was censored.

@@bluemouse5039 There is difference between those in Video Games and Movies to IRL

its pathetic this is history

Post a Violence, WAR disclaimer at the beginning of the videos. Simple enough and others are doing it. If you don't have the guts to show true battle wounds, do something else.

I have a first hand account of what you are stating. That farmer was Mr Miller of the Roulette farm, Bloody Lane. My father was a personal friend of Mr Miller. We, my father, 3 brothers and myself had the distinct pleasure of metal detecting the farm in the early 70's. Mr Miller told my father that each time he plows, disks or hares an area of the farm, it sounds hollow and very different. I was standing right there when he told my dad. I was about 11 years old. Mr Miller said he thought there were graves at that location. We discussed the scenario. We made a moral and ethical decision not to dig or disturb that area at all. Years passed and a person from Ohio came to the farm, he detected also. Mr Miller must have mentioned it to him. He went to the spot and dug those men up. It was 3 men, thought to be of the Irish brigade. After he took what he wanted, Gold crucifix, buttons bullets etc, he notified the park service. They came in and did a archeological dig. Apparently they did research on the bones that were there. One soldier was 37, I believe, one was struck by 7 projectiles. The others were young, I don't know those details so I won't speak on it. The Ohio guy was looking for fame I guess, the park service and him couldn't come to a agreement about putting an exhibit in the museum with his claim to fame. I know for a fact, when that guy dug them up he took bones from the grave site and gave them to Mr Miller in a gallon zip lock bag. I saw them years later when I visited Mr Miller before he passed. The farm was in a Federal easement and is part of the national park now.

Mate I’m in the UK but I’m quite fascinated by the American civil war if I’m totally honest with you I really enjoy researching the Civil War ghosts as I’m a spiritual person myself mate but, it must’ve been horrific for the soldiers of that time buddy, terrifying in fact.

@mrfugazi6713 I spent many great days in the early 1970's in the cornfields and hay fields of Antietam. Sunken Lane, Burnside Bridge, Monocacy and South Mountain! We had 2 detectors, well one at first, it was switched off between my Dad and oldest brother. I would help dig and just tag along. Then my Dad bought a Fisher and it was a great machine, simple easy to run. So I got to do some detecting while they were eating lunch or taking a breather. I can tell you when you are in the corn on a hot summer day, that corn being 10 ft. tall became like you were in a hallway in the rows of corn. You could only see down the row and about 3 rows over between the corn stalks, so not much. There were times and we all experiencd it a feeling of someone being near a sort of presence. The wind would blow and you swear someone just went t by you. It didn't happen all the time but mostly at the Sunken Lane. We all talked about those feelings riding home or at the dinner table. It wasn't a bad feeling for me, so many lost their lives there. I respect all the men both sides for such bravery. It's hard to imagine, many days being there I thought about what sacrifice was given not just there but during the whole war and every war. .

@@C.M.R.Artifacts-qu1eyalways wanted to do some metal detecting in that area, not for fame and fortune, just to see what is there! Amazing story thanks.

Answered in a pinned comment

Yea, whom are you protecting ? Todays kids kill murder rape, carjack listen to violence laden rap, death metal, violent video games. They’ve lived a lot more violence than some older people. Nothing that they can’t stomach

Why do they have to censor and borrow anything anymore

Because young kids can stumble upon the video here. This is RU-vid, not the dark web. You wouldn't drag a child out onto the battlefield after battle and let it have a close look at all the gore surrounding it either.

Absolutely!

He explains in a pinned comment that it's due to RU-vid rules, otherwise it would get taken down. Be mad at RU-vid, not him

@@EEsmalls Excuses. This is bait and switch

@silverletter4551 if you want gore, there's plenty of other channels or websites you can go to. Can't blame this channel for actually needing to get paid for what they do

Exactly..

I wish x formally known as Twitter would step up and let people publish uncensored videos and drive RU-vid completely out of existence

Yes Sir, they are pain bullets, I have battlefield finds that fit perfectly into human teeth. We have found about 5 or 6. They try to say hogs chewed on them and discredit the fact that they were chewed by a human.The ones we have are incredible.

I'd love to metal detect..would not mind sharing my finds..

yeah..Yankees could well have won if not for AP..but i doubt it...they had McClellan

Welcome to the dystopian future

You just want to be a keyboard ghoul. If you really have a need for medical education there are medical museums which have these relics of war

how about john b gordon...shot 6 times and survived only because when he blacked out he fell face down and would have drowned from blood in his hat but for a yankee bullet hole in the through the hat..

My favorite quote from D.H Hill : it wasn't war.. it was murder. After the battle of malvern hill, part of the 7 days battle

There was a similar one from a Reb General at Fredricksburg@@jacobriggs7483

@@jacobriggs7483 Malvern Hill was one example where D.H. Hill's mind differed from Lee's. D.H. Hill can be quoted saying "if Gen. McClellan is there in force, we had better let him alone". This was referring to the extremely strong position which the Union troops held. Nevertheless, Lee ordered the attack which ultimately led to massive Confederate losses, many of which were D.H. Hill's men.

@dantehill4748 Lee was always on the offensive. It served him well in the early years, before the union really got its shit together. After that it wasn't such a good idea. He was totally right. Should have let it be. It was murder.. plain n simple. He took advice from Jackson. Never dig in. Never hold ground. Always advance and push the enemy. Doing this, a small force shall overcome a large force every time.. that only works if the force doesn't consist of over 100,000.....

I lived 2 houses down from Clara Barton`s house in Oxford Mass.For over 10yrs...🤠😎

You can pick up any historical Civil War book and there’s plenty of photos of dead bodies, bloated bodies at Gettysburg, etc. so why it needs to be blurred out is ridiculous

In a line , fire 😮

Give me a break, young people don’t have any idea about American. History. They’re too busy playing games.

Young people don’t know anything about their history. Too busy playing games.

Very good point.

Democrat controlled public schools alow porn now...

Ask RU-vid

That was the tactics at the time.

But the taste of those crops must have been something else 😂😂

Also D. H.. Hills North Carolinas.

Well they were yankees after all

@@harrybalsak916 ""Hurrah for DIXIE!"

Blame RU-vid. They are big b!tch in the room. It’s not the presenter.

Good thing they werent using Minnie balls.

@tigerboy60 Same thing, one is a rifled musket or rifle, the other is a smooth bore that required a patch for accuracy. Same amount of lead depending on caliber.

There not "The Same" thing, the Minnie Ball is extremly more accurate, and more Deadly. I'm not sure what year the minnie ball was introduced, before Antietam or after. @@C.M.R.Artifacts-qu1ey

I have a big booty

Or censor

They were referred to as CASUALTIES. Casualties include KIA, MIA and WIA

Not changed,but abolished
