Great job by Jim, Matt and Mike. Looking forward to the next parts for July 2 and 3. I believe the cavalry that was east of Francis CHANNNING Barlow was under the command of Devin. Gamble was busy on the other side of the battlefield at the edge of Seminary Ridge. I also thought I have heard Devin’s men had to with drawl because of friendly fire from AOP artillery from Cemetery Hill.

There's another one of those mystery W's or M's near Berdan Ave. We'll see it in August at the hopefully dry Get out of the Car Tour in Pitzer's Woods. And back on topic....Jim does a great job as usual, I love when you have him on. He's very knowledgeable and interesting to listen to. And Mike Lentz is as knowledgeable as they come.

@@addressinggettysburg If I remember correctly, it's near the 1st US Sharpshooters monument. It's been awhile since I first saw it, and of course it stood out because I had no idea what it was. But it's there. I have some pictures of it also.

And for any and all who reads these comments...CORRECTION...the small marker near the 1st US Sharpshooters on Berdan does not have a W on it, rather is has US. Still not sure what it is for.

I always thought Ewell had a crazy combo beard using the Burnside lambchops and Hancock's moustache & chin beard. It wasn't until a couple years ago I realized his collar was just hiding part of his beard. I was a little disappointed yet still relieved that he had better taste than I'd always thought... 😉

54:40 - this is a very significant conversation. (Insert disclaimer about my lifelong misunderstandings of military history due to the strategic level focus of the “history books” I had available.) A division does not necessarily equal a division, a corps does not necessarily equal a corps, and so forth. Thirty years ago, I couldn’t understand how the Army of Northern Virginia, with just 3 corps, had any chance of standing up to the Army of the Potomac with 7.

54:47's question of why new regiments...If the U.S.A. had created new regiments like this during the Vietnam War might the U.S. have won that war?

@addressinggettysburg Жыл бұрын

No because the populace didn’t have the head, heart or stomach to win during Vietnam. Plus, theoretically, the South had the heart for war and still lost with those regiments. Also, I didn’t listen to the point in the show you’re referring to, so I could be whistling Dixie here.

Not during the Gettysburg campaign. I mean some, but they basically went on a shopping spree up here before the battle. The Union boys had more deficiencies with food and clothing during this campaign. Just another myth that the Lost Cause has tricked us into thinking. 😀

@@addressinggettysburg With all due- and sincere- respect, the idea that the men of the AotP had a greater problem with procuring food than did the men of the AoNV has no foundation at all. The operational objective of Lee's campaign was to forage off of enemy territory and restock the AoNVs supply train. The historical record is clear enough that Lee's army was all but starving along the line of the Rappahannock- enough so that he couldn't remain there. In fact, the necessity of Lee's army to forage crippled his entire campaign. Lee was strapped for time from day one until his withdrawal southward, and foraging ate up time in his march northward that he never had to spare. In fact, the AoNV was in such dire need for food that it prompted Lee to commit the fatal error of the campaign- by giving his cavalry commander two critical objectives for one small force (and not designating either as a priority) and directing Stuart to gather provisions for the army. Clothing? Possibly- but only if one doesn't count shoes. Cheers...
