ASK A GETTYSBURG GUIDE #99- SCALES' BRIGADE- with LBG Chris Army and Patron "McNair"
LBG Chris Army is joined by hater-turned-Patron Dwayne. Som eknow him as "McNair." Dwayne has done extensive research on Scales' Brigade and asked if he could sit in on an Ask A Guide. We love to include our Patrons in whatever they can contribute to, so, of course, I said yes.
Scales Brigade (from its Brigade Plaque):
C. S. A.
Army of Northern Virginia
Hills Corps Pender’s Division
Scales’s Brigade
13th 16th 22nd 34th 38th North Carolina Infantry
July 1. Crossed Willoughby Run about 3.30 P. M. relieving Heth’s line and advancing with left flank on Chambersburg Pike took part in the struggle until it ended. When the Union forces made their final stand on Seminary Ridge the Brigade charged and aided in dislodging them but suffered heavy losses. Gen. A. M. Scales was wounded and all the field officers but one were killed or wounded.
July 2. In position near here with skirmishers out in front and on flank.
July 3. In Longstreet’s assault the Brigade supported the right wing of Pettigrew’s Division. With few officers to lead them the men advanced in good order through a storm of shot and shell and when the front line neared the Union works they pushed forward to aid it in the final struggle and were among the last to retire.
July 4. After night withdrew and began the march to Hagerstown.

"A golden apple in a silver picture", The Gettysburg Address conjures up an almost religious feeling in the hearts of many Americans. With only 272 words, Abraham Lincoln was able to say more about where America had been, was and will be than any politician before or since. But what is the context of his speech beyond dedicating a cemetery? Just what do its words and phrase mean when you break ...

    Wondering what you know about the Potomac 4 wheel traveling kitchen? An Australian newspaper of 1864 states:- "A Locomotive Kitchen - A 'New York Journal says that a cooking apparatus on four wheels, and drawn by two horses, which is intended to be used for the Army of the Potomac, has been constructed in New York. It has cooking facilities for four hundred men, and must prove an acceptable aid in the operation of the Commission. The cooking-waggon consists of three boilers, for making tea, coffee, and soup; each boiler holding fourteen gallons, and capable while on the move, with good fuel, of boiling ten gallons each every twenty minutes - while stationary, twelve gallons in the same time (twenty minutes), which would be from ninety to ono hundred and eight gallons per hour."

    Just dirty. Then again, immigrants made up to 50% of some regiments. Emancipation was pragmatic. What jobs did blacks get in the Union? Oh yes...they dutifully served as human shields (54th Mass.) and as prison guards in places like Camp Hoffman. I.e. they performed jobs no whites would willingly take. As a side note we have Grant's General Order #11 which exposed the North's ongoing participation in the cotton trade. The textile mills didn't just close shop upon the opening shots at Ft. Sumter. Then came half a century of sharecropping. All of this was beyond cynical. The whole dang affair. Beyond cynical. But great interview as always. Perhaps more will begin digging into the dollars and sense of it all.

    Late here. GREAT discussion. LOVE the convo after 54:00 re: Lincoln's unsent letter And you're right, Sickles "poisoned Lincoln's mind early on". Question is...who was Sickles REALLY working for? i of course have him in England with none other than GEORGE PEABODY, at the infamous dinner... Wondering if he was privy to that OTHER meeting in London in 1856 hosted by George Sanders... He was definitely steering not only the narrative but events as well. This is why all the GBG regulars stick to the salient and yeah, have fun regaling crowds with the stories of philandering... But never hone in on the power he had, the attention of "the king's ear", and the levers he pulled preceding the war as a DIPLOMAT
