Civil War - Musket Loading Drill In-Nine-Times HD

Another in our new series of HD videos covering the military history of the United States and various conflicts over the centuries — with a spotlight on the Soldiers who fought for their country. This installment illustrates and demonstrates the steps to load the three-band rifled musket “In-Nine-Times“ as written in the United States Army “Casey’s Manual” for Infantry Soldiers - a manual of arms used primarily by the Union Army during the Civil War. The three-part tome was published by the War Department in 1862 as an update to an earlier manual written by William Hardee and now used widely by not only the Union Army but by Confederates as well. In 1862, Hardee was now a Confederate Major General. This video is an ideal primer and step-by-step guide for re-enactors on how to properly hold, carry and load the three-band musket during the American Civil War. 🇺🇸👕🎖️** Find All Of Our Exclusive Patriotic & History-Oriented Merchandise Here - Every Sale Supports The Channel And Keeps Us “On The Air“: https:/
