Tom Hewitt Quotations

There are elements of family all through our unit, so if something happens to one person, we all help out,

My great uncle died on the third charge up Missionary Ridge in Tennessee,

I got interested in the 8th Texas when I learned there was a captain with my name in the unit. We've all learned so much just by being here, listening and acting.

We're together as a family, out in the open air, reliving history and sharing it with people, ... Doing this give all of us a different perspective.

At Dad's funeral, it was something. I think everyone was surprised to see the whole battalion of re-enactors there. We're family and that's really cool.
