Feast Yr Ears

_ Feast Yr Ears _ is taking a trip through time talking to Matt Dellinger, journalist and Civil War reenactor, about what life was like for the Brooklyn 14th regiment.  The Brooklyn 14th received its nickname, as Matt explains, the “Red Legged Devils,” during the First Battle of Bull Run. Referring to the regiment’s colorful red trousers as the regiment repeatedly charged up Henry House Hill, Confederate General Thomas J. “Stonewall” Jackson yelled to his men, “Hold On Boys! Here come those red legged devils again!”  After the break, Harry and Matt discuss his book “Interstate 69: The Unfinished History of the Last Great American Highway,” as well as their favorite road trip memories.
