Inspired by a Civil War diary left behind by his great-great-grandfather, the host of the Company D podcast, George F. Snell III, has spent years researching and preserving the lives of hundreds of soldiers who served in the Third Maine Infantry Regiment. Today, Company D reaches thousands of listeners with the remarkable, deeply human stories of Maine’s forgotten regiment. Join us for an evening of history as George shares some of his favorite discoveries — tales of courage, loss, and the lasting impact of war on ordinary families.

 
George F. Snell III is the great-great-grandson of Charles F. Snell, a volunteer with Company D of the Third Maine Infantry Regiment during the Civil War. A former award-winning journalist and communications consultant, Snell is the producer and host of Company D, a narrative history podcast exploring the lives of Maine soldiers and the families they left behind. He is also a member of the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War, Post #104.
