This Remembrance Day marked the 15th Anniversary of the New 67th NY, First Long Island Volunteers. After our twin ceremonies for the 67th NY & 65th NY on Culp's Hill, we marched in the parade, and then had a group photo at the Victorian Photography Studio on Steinwehr.
PART ONE:
Our fourth time coincided with the eve of Hurricane Sandy however we did get a full day in on Saturday. Here we have Surgeon's call, a visit to the Confederates, drilling the spectators, and start of our battle.
PART TWO:
Saturday's battle scenario as shot by war correspondent Tom Crowley
Saturday's scenario as filmed by Eileen Minella including full footage of 'Firing By Company' with all six Companies of the Mifflin Guard firing in perfect sequence.

Sunday's late morning battle scenario filmed by Eileen Minella.
This video is from the Mifflin Guard's Living History at Gettysburg National Park in 2012. This was certainly one of the HOTTEST living histories that we've performed (temps in the low 100s) however the low humidity and stiff breezes did mitigate the suffering. Here you will see morning Dress Parade and two of the three Infantry demos that took place on Saturday in front of the Minnesota Monument.
PART ONE:
This year we were blessed with perfect weather for our educational program at Smithtown Historical Society. This video includes the infantry skirmish between the 67th NY and the combined Virginian forces of the 9th, 30th, and 57th.
PART TWO:
This video contains a tutorial from our Surgeon George Adams (John Ferranninni) plus the Union Cavalry demonstration by the 10th NY Cavalry.
PART ONE:
The 67th NY, Co. H, 14th Brooklyn, and Frank Bradford from the 10th NY Cavalry form up and march into the cemetery of Saint Ann's Church in Bayport, NY. The Sayville American Legion invited us to perform this unusual period memorial at the grave of General Regis de Trobriand. Following protocol, we marched inside the cemetery at Reverse Arms, a difficult cortortion to say the least while a riderless horse trailed behind with boots in the stirrups.
PART TWO:
George Munkenbeck of Co. H, 14th Brooklyn delivered most of the words spoken during the ceremony with an inclusive history of the General from his emigration from France, serving brilliantly in the Union Army, and finally settling down in Bayport with his American family.
PART THREE:
At the conlcusion of the memorial, we fired off the traditional three volleys and marched out of the cemetery
Wishing to give a Civil War theme to Fun's latest single, Some Nights, the Producers contacted the 67th NY, First Long Island for assistance in shooting. Unfortunately, we were not available for their mid-week shot in upstate New York however we referred the Producers to our local colleagues in the Living History community who were fortunately able to assist and appear. If you cease from blinking you will actually see some members of the 9th Virigina.
PART ONE:
The annual reenactment at Neshaminy State Park always includes a lengthy drill on the green so that we can shake off the rust from winter camp. This year we formed Sixth Company of the Mifflin Guard with the 61st NY and in this clip Capt Joe Bilardello (67th NY) and Capt Bill Johnson (61st NY) take us through Company drill.
PART TWO:
After Company Drill, the Mifflin Guard reforms for the more complex battalion drill under the direction of Lt. Col. Bill DAvid.

This video actually comes courtesy of the 9th Virginia who marches with us in the Westhampton Beach Saint Patrick's Day parade
We helped out several NYU Graduate Film Students in making a short Civil War themed film that was part of their "finals" prior to graduation. We spent about 10 hours in the snow making this and the NYU students spent yet another full day of shooting out at the Grange to make it happen. Making movies is a lot more work than appears. Still, it was fun. With George McDonna, Michael-Dante Laurino, Jerald Lane, & George Munkenbeck (who got to speak!). You will also see the webmaster as one of the thiefs, but don't blink!
