A sanitation worker who cleans up human debris.
Godfrey was thrilled at the prospect of attending his first Civil War reenactment. Unfortunately, he was not ready to serve under Union Army Major General George B. McClellan in an assault on General Robert E. Lee's army at Antietam Creek. Nor was he ready to defend an outnumbered confederate force battling on Union soil for the first time. Today, on the bloodiest single-day of fighting in American history, Godfrey would be cleaning up after the battle. He would be serving both sides as a humanitation worker, gathering decapitated heads, eyeballs, and severed limbs (plastic, of course) and packing them into Rubbermaid bins in preparation for the next battle.
