SUMMARY:15-Minute History Spotlight: Camp Casey 
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday\, July 13 at 2 PM at the Arlington Historical Museum to uncover the powerful story of Camp Casey—a Civil War training ground for newly freed Black men who joined the US Army during the Civil War in the new US Colored Troop (USCT) Regiments. Michael Schaffner\, a reenactor with the USCT\, has spent the last several years hunting through military and government records to locate this uniquely Arlington site. \nLocated near today’s Pentagon\, Camp Casey was more than just a military post—it was a symbol of freedom\, hope\, and change during a pivotal moment in our nation’s history. Hear the story and what we know about it and then see the artifacts related to it–all in the Arlington Historical Museum. \nThis is one of a new series of brief talks at the Arlington Historical Museum on select Sundays each month. Come to the talk and learn history you won’t learn in school\, then stay to tour all the new exhibits at the re-envisioned museum. Come rediscover the hidden stories that helped shape Arlington.
