HIPPOCKET HISTORY #10 - THE GREAT LOCOMOTIVE CHASE
Manage episode 407347162 series 3559551
In an attempt to bring down the Rebellion, a small band of Union volunteers travel deep into the heart of the Confederacy to commandeer a locomotive, and cripple southern railways in 1862. Disguised as Confederate sympathizers from Kentucky looking to enlist in the army, they execute their mission and shake things up down south. Find out how these men became our Nation's first recipients of the Medal of Honor.
