Manny- I am so thankful that I was able to attend and meet you. What an event! The moody weather didn’t dampen the sprits of the dedicated few that attended. For me it was rather surreal sitting in the Dunker Church with a bunch of guys dressed in “butternut”. The presentation by the Lieutenant was exceptional. I’ve have witnessed a number of cannon demonstrations, but he was able to elaborate on the life of an artilleryman in fresh way. I’m going to develop my film today. I’ll let you know if any turn out. Thanks again- Rob from Brooklyn http://robertgouldhistoricalartist.blogspot.com/
