An Illinois pumpkin farm will become a Virginia creek on April 6, 1865, or some other famous Civil War Battle and Battlefield that determined the fate of our nation. As thousands of onlookers watch hundreds of reenactors armed with rifles and cannons portray carefully choreographed battles of the Civil War.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Preparing for the Battle Reenactment<\/strong><br \/>\nBefore the Saturday afternoon battle commenced up the hill at the farm, Union infantrymen prepare for what they know will be a long march to the battlefield and a tough battle. They pack up their ammunition pouches and fill their knapsacks with food and gear. As in the days of the real battle, infantrymen never knew where they would end up following the battle, so they carried everything with them, including bedding.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-7469\" src=\"https:\/\/www.crazycrow.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Dollinger-Farm-Civil-War-Reenactment-01-360x475.jpg\" alt=\"Dollinger Farm Civil War Reenactment - Dollinger Family Farm\" width=\"360\" height=\"475\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.crazycrow.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Dollinger-Farm-Civil-War-Reenactment-01-360x475-200x264.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.crazycrow.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Dollinger-Farm-Civil-War-Reenactment-01-360x475-227x300.jpg 227w, https:\/\/www.crazycrow.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Dollinger-Farm-Civil-War-Reenactment-01-360x475.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>While they prepared themselves, women and children lined the gravel path wearing period clothing, waiting to cheer on the soldiers as they marched past.
