Podcast: Addressing GettysburgPublished On: Mon Dec 11 2023
Description: Now and then, we're contacted by a listener who has done some work on his or her own gumption. Seeing as how we came out of nowhere, we like to shed a light on others who come out of nowhere, but do good work. Early in 2023, Ben Cwayna contacted us and we invited him on the show to join LBG Lewis Trott in an Ask A Guide about Perrin's Brigade Ben is proud graduate of Michigan State University where he graduated from both undergrad and laws school, Ben is a practicing attorney and managing partner in a law firm in Grand Ledge, Michigan. He is the proud father of his son, Grant, and has been an avid Civil War enthusiast for most of his 43 years. For the past 31 years, he has been an active member of the 12th South Carolina/4th Michigan Volunteer Infantry, Inc.; a dual impression living history organization and currently serves as its commanding officer. He has studied the 12th South Carolina Volunteer Infantry in depth since he was twelve years old and has written a regimental history entitled, "The Invincible Twelfth" which will be published by Savas Beatie. His next work will be focused on writing a command study of AP Hill's Third Corps in the Army of Northern Virginia. Ben is proud to have ancestors that fought on both sides of the conflict; one in the 111th Ohio and the other in the 7th Tennessee and 54th North Carolina.
