Thanks. That was fun. Great special effects for the era. Did anyone notice the name of the ship? - S. S. Hoot Man.

For a "dissertation" on Hoot Man with kilts and bagpipes see ...

Let 'em walk; it's cheaper. Lol!!

The last US Civil War veterans* were:
Confederacy-
Pleasant Crump 23 December 1847-31 December 1951 (Verified)
Union-
Albert Woolson (1848–1956)

*It should be noted that these men were the exception rather than the norm. Think of it as similar to how we, in the twenty first century, view First World War veterans. The last ones passed away a couple of years ago. They were born in he ninteenth century and died in the twenty first. Super-centarians are are rare but not unheard of thing. In fact, it is estimated that within a generation living to be a century will not be nearly as rare as it was a generation ago.
