Great video nonetheless, except for the narrator calling it Fort Henry.

I just sent it out to the boys in my Trail Life USA Troop.

Thanks for posting it.

In the video in post 30, the park ranger gives a history lesson to the kids from 1:20 to 1:38.

The actual historical part of the video begins around one hour 38 minutes.
