With the relatively simple recognition of a single, family found Civil War veteran continuing to snowball, members of the "Old Abe" 8th WI, Co. C Civil War Re-enactment will now be joining Thorp's July 4th ceremony this Tuesday. Jim Reynen, who portrays Lt. Robin Tobinette, a union soldier whose artillery unit supported the 8th WI regiment at6 the Civil War battle at Corinth, Mississippi, contacted Thorp's Bob Zukowski to request his unit's involvement in the area's special day.
The re-enactment unit which was formally established in 1975 and supported by former Governor, Tommy Thompson, has asked to bring a color guard to the ceremony. They will be using an authentic 14 Pounder James Ordinance Rifle, the same cannon often used in Civil War battles.
The 8th WI Co C. Eagle Regiment unit is known as one of the five organizations in the country permitted to have in its possession a bald eagle. This particular stuffed bird is on long-term loan to the unit from the Department of Natural Resources and federal government and is often used during their re-enactments, both as a standing symbol of patriotism and because the original Old Abe unit actually ha a bald eagle as its mascot.
In addition to the Civil War veterans that will be recognized from the East Thorp Cemetery, Zukowiski has announced that several more Civil War veterans will be honored. They include: Johannes G. Audorff, Co. E. 54th NY Cav., Butler Cemetery; William Bryant / Buysalt / Buycite, Co. G, 5th WI Inf., St. Bernard Cemetery; William Colby, Co. K, 25th WI Inf., Sylvan Cemetery; George W.
