This poignant biographical feature cuts through the fog of the American Civil War to reveal the human cost behind the "troubling period" of the 1860s. The narrative centers on Lt. Joel Jackson Denmark of Wayne County, North Carolina, a man who rose from the rank of Private to lead men in the 27th North Carolina Infantry, Company A (The Goldsboro Rifles).
The video expertly traces the dramatic arc of the 27th Regiment itself—a unit that suffered early humiliation at the Battle of New Bern only to forge a reputation of ironclad stubbornness at Sharpsburg (Antietam), where they famously held the line against overwhelming odds.
Against this backdrop of regimental redemption, the viewer follows Lt. Denmark’s personal journey. The story navigates through his promotion and leadership, culminating in the ill-fated Battle of Bristoe Station on October 14, 1863. The video provides a detailed breakdown of this often-overlooked engagement, illustrating how a tactical error by A.P. Hill led the 27th into a deadly trap along the railroad cut, claiming the life of Lt. Denmark.
