Salute to Veterans: Civil War Battlefield Tactics

The Rochester Hills Museum at Van Hoosen Farm will be hosting a lecture series, A Salute to Veterans, on the first three Thursdays of November.  The lectures will be held in the Van Hoosen Dairy BarnMuseum members and students are free, non members $5, Seniors/Veterans $3.  Please call to register at 248.656.4663 or rhmuseum@rochesterhills.org.

This third and final lecture in the Salute to Veterans series features Lowell Hamilton who will recreate Civil War battlefield tactics using metal war gaming miniatures historically positioned on a terrain board. Coupled with his military experience and education, the presentation is sure to heighten your appreciation of our forefathers as we approach the sesquicentennial of the American Civil War.
