The filming took place in Beaumont, California.
Though there were several units of United States Colored Troops that participated in the 'Battle of the Crater', we represented the 19th United States Colored Infantry Regiment, 2nd Brigade, 4th Division of the 9th Corps. PThe segment is based on the diary of a white federal officer. History Channel personnel were shooting the 'Battle of the Crater' segment that will air this summer. I was recently called up to help train and instruct cast members for the History Channel series, Civil War Combat.
