Civil War Re-Enactors Honor Ancestors Who Forged Modern America

The echo of the American Civil War of the 1860's still resonates in the United States. The descendants of those who made history come together every year to remember the greatest battles and to discuss the military campaigns of the war that almost divided this nation. VOA's Anush Avetisyan takes us to the streets of the little Pennsylvania town of Gettysburg, where the re-enactment of one of the war's most significant battles takes place each year. Joy Wagner narrates.
