interesting what you showed with terrain cross section about picketts division not being able to see pettigrews or trimbles.. i believe Kemper said he did not recall ever seeing any confederate units other than picketts division throughout the whole assault

love it! where did you get this map?

You are incredible sir! I would love to ask you a few questions for a board game on the campaign I am designing -- using some unique fog of war mechanics (which I feel is missing from most games on the matter, but is essential to do any justice to the campaign).

I love these videos. I wish you would have put a "Chapter Number" in the title though. :) Just constructive feedback good person!

These are INCREDIBLE videos! Thank you for your service sir!

'General, I have been a soldier all my life. I have been with soldiers engaged in fights by couples, by squads, companies, regiments, divisions, and armies, and should know as well as anyone what soldiers can do. It is my opinion that no 15,000 men ever arrayed for battle can take that position' Longstreet (even without Rittenhaus's enfilading 6 guns or McGilvery's oblique 41 guns)

This is GREAT. I would have just recommended representing the lengths of these trains by having multiple wagons strung out over 17 and 30 miles (I believe that is the number... I would have to review my books on that but don't have time at the moment). I think just having one wagon doesn't make this clear.

Excellent

If you're a USCW fan (I use the term loosely, it's blood and guts and I feel for the men fighting), this combined with various NPS battle walks from the Rangers, let's the visual understanding sink in. It's another dimension of the event.

My great great grandad was in the 42nd Mississippi

Excellent concise summary, thank you.

Ewell's failure to take Cemetery Hill cost the Confederates the Gettysburg Battle. Attacking Culp's Hill was a waste of time and resources. If the Confederates put more emphasis on Cemetery Hill they win day 2 and day 3 and probably win the war. Huge mistake.

Great video!

Brilliant thanks for posting……gives some clarity to a very busy day the animated map is a god send and brings the whole thing to life. 👏🇮🇲 from across the pond!

The confederate divisions seem to be cuorusly unmotivated to do anything about an entire army moving around and trying to cross the river.

Very cool! Keep up the great content.

I totally can’t wait for it and just saying but another interesting thing about the Vicksburg campaign is that the main confederate general Pemberton was actually from the north.

Love your animated content, similar to what I do but civil war era is so cool. Well made!

Culp's Hill was a fool's errand. 100 foot sheer rock wall- complete idiotic waste of time for the Confederates. If the Confederates concentrate on Cemetery Hill and the artillery there- they would have won this battle. Having Culp's Hill would do neither side much good. Too far from the battlefield with no clear lines of sight to strike the enemy.

Very good study of the action at Gettysburg. However, Vincent’s Bde was important at LRT, but not the only Bde that held that hill. Weed’s Brigade was also instrumental in holding the LRT position.

“COME ON YOU WOLVERINES!”

American battlefield trust has done videos on Hood's attack and the Round Tops. Check them out.

I disagree with people who say that "Little Round Top is a myth"

One of my favorite channel's on UA-cam, thank you so much for continuing your minute by minute breakdown of this battle. You are truly providing an important historical resource.

Really nice

My 2x great grandfather, James B White, was in the 39th 10th Reserve Pa. Vols.. He was a Venango Grey.. Injured on day two he spent a month in a hospital in DC. I've been to "The Tenths" monument which I recall being in the saddle. Obviously, they saw action. If you can add anything, to any degree, about the "Tenths" roll or where to access information, I'd be grateful... Also "GettysburghMinuteByMinute" is a gem.. Thanks for your work!

It's a bit confusing when you use red for Confederate lines, Blue for union, but then use red lettering for a Union general and his movements with red arrows. Let all union lines, generals, and arrows be in blue. Let all Confederate lines, generals, and arrows be in red. Then there can be no confusion as at 9:10 (OMG Who the F is Zook? Did a Confederate general suddenly get behind Union lines for an attack?) With some extra research, I realized this was not the case, but if the colors were totally consistent then it would be much clearer. Thank You, and excellent job, overall.

His mouth is making slimy noises between every sentence

I cannot imagine Lee not being informed about his shortage. It was a doomed attacked.

Clear. Concise. To the Point. Excellent videos. I hope to make WWII videos similar to this

What a great presentation. Thanks. My husband's 22 year old ancestor from Maryland, a Union private with the 8th Regiment Infantry from Baltimore, was at Harpers Ferry, Frederick, and Boonesborough during this whole affair. Marching here, there, and everywhere. Back and forth. His regiment joined Meade's 1st Division at Boonesborough on July 10th and moved south into Virginia. He lived through it all with chronic dysentery. He went home from Remington, VA before the Overland Campaign.

This is some of the best analysis Ive seen

Excited about upcoming series!! Your work is outstanding!

How did Grant supply his army after he crossed the Mississippi before he got the supply line from the river to the north? It seems like taking Jackson and cutting the railway line was just as important as the river. Why does it seem to be an afterthought? Did the Confederates take Jackson back? Why did Johnson not come south again after Grant got to Vicksburg? Wonderful series, I very much like it.

Excited to see you expanding the scope of your videos, and absolutely fantastic work! Looking forward to seeing more of these. If you're going to move on to different battles, you should change the channel’s name to something more generic like "CivilWarMinuteByMinute" or something like that, and create playlists for each battle to better organize them all!

There was indeed a ball after Jeb Stuart’s “grand review.” Scott Mingus and Eric Wittenberg mention this in their two volume work “If We’re Striking for Pennsylvania.” Aloha 😊🤙🏼

A morbid coincidence that there is a Cemetary Ridge.

how was these cannon moved ??

Only outsiders call it “Gettysburg”. It is properly pronounced “Gettisburg” with an “isss” sound.

I Gain so much Knowledge of these Battles..GREAT WORK!!! SUBSCRIBED

"the Confederates couldn't have won" - and when will I hear from the kind of people who espouse this point of view, (ignoring the decisive points of the battle on the first and second days of Gettysburg and the many possible ways they could have developed), that the Confederates couldn't have lost certain important battles that they happened to win? Or heaven forfend if anyone would dare utter "the Union was never going to win such and such battle" You don't often hear that, do you? It doesn't fulfill any psychological needs to say that. When you hear about inevitability (always going one way), It reminds me of the way the Communists would talk about "the inevitable victory of the proletariat."

we dont know about Lee not making making the charge Penndel an

was LONGSTREET RIGHT MOVE AROUND MAKE UNION come from the heights to follow - LEE was wrong - no fan of LONGSTREET but in this instance LEE was wrong

Thank you. Great video

Great work! Valuable tool! Congrats!

As I have said before I love these in depth videos. The nuance and struggle by individual companies and men is usually lost....Gettysburg, Picketts Charge, Lee Lost, done. Your deep dive into units and their parts is insightful regardless if it is exactly right to the time to location....it is close enough to show how the conflict was fought. Thank you

Lee should have known better than to 4:52 attack a dug-in Union army.

I can’t wait to see you do the wheat field/ Valley of death fight that’s if you are going to that and I can’t wait to see it because fighting in the fight for the valley of death was a very special regiment and this special regiment was the 1st Pennsylvania reserves infantry regiment and the regiment was special because out of its company’s one stood out from the rest and this company was Company K Which was made up of locals from the Gettysburg area and serving in the regiment was one of my 3rd great grand uncles and his name was 2nd Lieutenant George E Kitzmiller and he is very famous in my family as he is buried in the evergreen cemetery but the reason he is famous is because where he is buried in the evergreen cemetery is where the stand upon which Abraham Lincoln gave the Gettysburg address stood.

I like how you position this as a race to a commanding position...but no one knows the race has started

Thanks for the video. You always do a great job.
