A little more about our program...
The subject is the Confederate army logistics.
The title is "Considering what has been said of their condition" and offers a reexamination of the state of Confederate supply.
Confederate Army logistics dealt with the immense challenge of supplying men, animals, and armies under the constraints of limited industry, poor transportation, and Union blockades. The system relied heavily on railroads, wagons, and local procurement to sustain forces across vast distances. Pittard’s talk explores how these logistical struggles shaped Confederate military operations and dispels common myths about the “ragged rebel” image.
Our Speaker:
Zachary Pittard
Director of Education and Interpretation at Pamplin Historical Park and the National Museum of the Civil War Soldier.
