Abstract:
The 19th Indiana Infantry regiment and their contributions have not received the
recognition that they deserve. Previous books and articles have provided a well documented
story of the Iron Brigade which the regiment was a part of. The problem with previous research
is that a majority of them do not focus on the 19th Indiana as a regiment of its own, with its own
unique history and combat record. As a result it was decided that the objective of this
documentary would be to create an updated visual historical record of 19th Indiana. What was
accomplished was a 46 minute documentary using a combination of interviews, animation,
archival material, and reenactment to provide an entertaining documentary for future audiences
to learn more about the 19th Indiana.
