John Hoptak is Awesome! My 4th Great Granddaddy was at Antietam, Cold Harbor, and was at Appomattox. He lost two brothers in that War, including his twin brother at Gettysburg. Never have I felt I was there, than as John relates the scenes at Gettysburg! Thank You, John!! I feel you made 5th Sargeant Mark Robinson proud.

Excellent program, Ranger Hoptak! As a DOI ranger during the Lewis and Clark Bicentennial I did a presentation on the medical aspects of the Expedition and its era. I concluded with a description/"demonstration" with my surgical instruments of a leg amputation like the one that Private George Shannon endured in 1807. I paused to warn the audience of the graphic nature of the PG-13 description so that those who wanted to leave could do so. Over the years I still had a total of five people pass out.

Military medicine has greatly improved since the American Civil War. I have helped and gotten out wounded soldiers during my time and Iraq to include a lot of civilians and escorted few wounded enemy insurgent combatants. The US Military surgeons of all branches who worked together have saved many lives as I have seen. They are indeed heroes to me because they have saved all of our guys in the units I was in and the civilians that I have picked up who were wounded.

This man is awesome. Tge carnage becomes alive. No wonder do many died or lost limbs. the lack of medical knowledge even that known in Europe seemed unknown in the USA. His description of medical education helped also. This mans knowledge of his subject is great and engages the audience.

It was so vivid I honestly had to stop watching. This ranger is like many if the others dispenses vital information in an intense engaging manner. Great word pictures !!

As a retired RN with more than 30 years experience, as well as being an EMT for 3 years, my hat is off to all of the people who tried, as Ranger Hoptak said, to give the best care they could with what they had and what they knew. I'm sometimes amazed that the survival rate for amputees was so high considering the complete absence of sterile technique and antisepsis.

This has happened in every war since the dawn of time till very recently in Vietnam. Medics/Corpsman had to always make the split-second decision that condemned people to their deaths in deciding who to Medevac/Casevac. Its sad because you hear stories in wars where if the person wounded would have survived if given the proper treatment but couldn't be brought back because the chances of the other person surviving are higher.

I like John. He's "Charismatic". To add more "UUUPPHH" to his Gettysburg "Appel". I recommended that he should change his name to JOHN HARDTACK. He told me that he's going to shoot me with a musket rifle. John Hardtack is mean. -Bill "Snuggles" Howes.

he is saying that after fighting and marching fifteen miles to night bivouac positions, soldier were not inclined to follow sanitary procedures due to fatigue. He says sanitation went down the toilet, so to speak, and pestilence ran unimpeded though camp. I say hogwash.
