Description

An experienced reenactor and descendant, Val John Halford wanted to hike with us out of Fort Leavenworth. After years of research and portraying the Battalion. He says theirs is "a Real Survival Story". Val saved the day for Denny when he helped dress the scouts and march them from the parade grounds to an anxious crowd  at The Frontier Army Museum waiting for "The Battalion" to arrive.  Val hiked with us in Arizona and San Diego also, but these are his memories about Ft. Leavenworth.
