Here's an interesting link about Julius Franklin Howell, a corporal in the 24th Virginia Cavalry. http://home.hamptonroads.com/stories/st ... ran=187608 The recording of Howell on a wax cylinder was apparently made in 1944, when he was 98. |

That was really something, makes you wish you could of talked to the gentlemen yourself and listen to his story. Reminds me of when I use to ask my dad about his time in the Navy during WWII, and other relatives from that time frame. Captain Gery Bastiani Fightin' Carolinians 4/2/II AotM CSA |
