Today we're talking with 21 year old Ben Starnes about his muzzleloading story. Ben got his start at a young age as a lover of history, books caught him first, then local museum programs showed him what it could be like to re-create history; from there, he was hooked. He's participated in American Civil War events, but currently focuses on the American War for Independence where he is a member of the "Lincoln County Militia" representing a unit from the Carolina backcountry. Militia impressions are quintessential Americana, but he doesn't stop there. Ben and his Unit can also portray British Light Infantry if the need is there, showing their dedication to history and a passion for sharing it with others.
Ben is a young man in a community of "grey hairs", I hope you enjoy his story and perspectives on muzzle loading and living history.
