This photo has always struck me for some reason. I think the look on the kid's face does it when you add the story behind it.







Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain was quite a fellow

Great pics Marv...thanks for posting!

The kid was seventeen. He was killed.

I checked out Steve's Wikipedia reference. What character!

Chamberlain was the last Civil War veteran to die as a result of wounds from the war, over 50 years after it happened.

They have events there all the time, but we mainly only go to this, we went there last year.
There was even a '67-'69 F-100 that had the 300 Inline Six there.
Several Mustang's, old and new.
I would have continued shooting video and my picture's, But all my memory cards filled up (I'ma be prepared next year)
we were so close to the competitors that we could almost touch their cars.
