Yep it was CW battle of Prairie Grove. National historic battleground and park. We have two of them right here. Prairie Grove and Pea Ridge. Then several across the line in Mo within a few hours. Our area was torn apart with loyalty to both sides during the war. I hope our Country never recreates the event.

I may have mentioned this. Morristown NHP was one of the first national Parks to get serious about living history as a way to conect visitors with the park's story. One of the stories in the park (ranger lore) was that an original musket out of the collection was used for the program. Turns out to be true. paper work and photos show an original Charleville was used in the early 1970s until they could get a reproduction musket. Kindof cool actually.
