The man led me outside where he showed me to the area where I saw men practicing how to load their their arms. He told me that after I had finished practicing that I should go over to taking aim. Also, I should not go on to the next thing unless I thought I was ready and could do what he required. This was going to be easy for me. At least I thought so because it looked that way, but I had a feeling that it was going to be easier said than done. For the next three weeks, we did those two things prior to being placed in a certain spot at Fort McHenry and remembering it. I had everything in my mind and could remember it easily. This was the last day to do drills and practice with our arms. |
