I enjoy sharing my studies and Civil War interest, especially presentations to like minded groups.  If you need a speaker for your organization’s calendar  please drop me a note at sokolosky1@aol.com

 
 

As a Soldier, I believe history is the soul of our military and preserving my country’s Civil War heritage is a key part.  Offering my services to your organization or event is one small measure in honoring the sacrifices of the men who served during our Civil War.
