On July 3, 2021, Matt Atkinson led a Battlewalk from the Virginia Memorial across the field of Pickett's Charge to the Union position at The Angle. Many were surprised to see Matt's special guest, actor Stephen Lang, who played General George E. Pickett in the movie Gettysburg. Mr Lang has been a very generous supporter of the Gettysburg Foundation and GNMP. Word is that he postponed his departure for home just to make this appearance.

It's strange how life works. 2 years ago I started watching the mysterious stuffwritter. Particularly the battle walks with Matt Atkinson. 2 months ago I started listening to Addressing Gettysburg. Common theme is Matt Atkinson. Lol

Usually Matt makes me laugh, today he made me cry (the Captain cradling his only child left in Pickett's Charge)... It was icing on the cake to hear from Stephen Lang! We would all love that 3rd movie to be produced, Last Full Measure... "someday"...

That’s why you gotta urge him, if you meet him, about coming on the show.

I've walked that 20 times and with a few pretty well known historians but Matt is one of a kind. Only Charlie Fennel could compare. Matt needs to get into the studio for a chat. C'mon Atkinson!!!

Right in about minute 20:00 you can hear a Hawk in the background! Pretty cool!

i'm so glad you caught that. There were three circling over head and I pointed the mic towards them for a second in hopes of catching their caw...is it called a caw when it's a hawk? Screech? Their noise.

Will someone ask Matt if Lee's early success was due to the Union's Inability to find competent Military Leadership - attacking Cemetery Ridge because that's where the enemy is seems less than genius or at best a FALSE sense if it

@addressinggettysburg Жыл бұрын

Lee’s opponents had something to do with it. But there are myriad reasons as to why things went the way the did. The bottom line is that the war ended in 1865 with the Union being preserved…for better or worse lol

@@addressinggettysburgindeed they did..... The Union did not have competent Generals in my opinion..... Even in the battles the Union won, they took horrific casualties until the very end of the war. Larger numbers of men and available resources won the war for the Union..... Don't get me wrong, I don't think they were totally incompetent..... But Lee, Longstreet and Jackson were a tough trio to beat.
