Let's discuss: if anything is wrong in this video

just a few equipment minorities and basically they're all mainstream grade. Nothing screams out of my eyes. The usual crap.

I noticed a lot of people with medals, sashes, and other fancy stuff... that doesn't look very accurate to me.

Its a dress parade, NCO and Officers can use sashes and white gloves.  I wear white gloves to memorial service and this parade was a memorial service.

Now those medals, could be some civil war awards, I know several guys who wear period accurate award. Its really hard to tell from the distance of the film, another thing we could consider is that event gave out award like pins like they did for 150th Gburg, they gave us medallion to mark us "registered" many would just pin it on your coat but many others will stuff it in the pocket as well.

So its hard to tell from the distance but it could be farby or accurate.

The best I can do is recover a compressed thumbnail from Google's cache.

Dude on right claims to be General Hood.   

More like General Farb.

I don't know why, but to me that goatee looks like some fake movie thing.

I think it is because he was sporting full white beard before this. 

Now i just noticed his facial hair is in no way, a replica of General Hood. Hood had a long full beard! Dammit this guy.

Look at the two, they are a perfect match!

On a serious note though: i just read Hood died in 1879 in his late 40's. This farb guy must be 50 at least. GG
