Along the way, we'll examine the regiment's movements, stand where critical moments unfolded, and share the personal stories of the officers and enlisted men who fought in the ranks of the 21st Mississippi. By combining battlefield exploration with firsthand accounts, we'll bring this regiment's story back to life where it happened.
