    Outstanding video sir. People have called Barksdale&apos;s charge the greatest charge ever witnessed and it easy to see why.

    I was a new second lieutenant when I walked up to the Mississippi monument in 1982. I believe that it was the first time I teared up at the thought of what happened to my fellow Mississippians.
