Bullwinkle's Corner - Barbara Frietchie

what happens

Bullwinkle recites the poem about Barbara Frietchie, a patriotic figure from the Civil War who sews a flag for the Union Army. As she bravely defies the Confederate forces, Boris, playing a Confederate soldier, tries to stop her efforts. The segment turns into a comedic struggle, as Bullwinkle’s Barbara outwits Boris in her attempt to show her support for the Union.
