Wow - I'm impressed that the living history programs are running in this brutal heat. A testimony to the dedication of the NPS staff and volunteers!
I'm still in awe that the soldiers could do that much marching and fighting in brutal heat in those uniforms. I guess being use to not having air conditioning really helped them out.
