Join us for the Boonsboro Historical Society's Speaker for March:

James Rosebrock "The Evolution of the Federal Light Artillery Organization in the Civil War". 

This talk will focus on the Army of the Potomac. Led by such innovators as William Barry and Henry Hunt, it was this army where the artillery organizations and doctrine evolved that would ultimately be used in some variations in every other Federal army in the war.

Jim has worked as a National Park Service Volunteer at Antietam National Battlefield since 2007, where he has been a certified battlefield guide and led the service from 2011-2018. He is co-founder of the Anitetam Institute and is its current Vice President.
