- Join the American Battlefield Trust's Education team for a live tour of the late fighting during the First Day at Gettysburg. This video is part of the American Battlefield Trust's
Facebook Live series commemorating the 155th Anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg.
Originally recorded live on July 2, 2018 in Gettysburg.
My history interests were mainly WW1 and WW2, but thanks to your channel I've learned so much about the Civil War. Keep up the good work everybody :)
Sincere thanks and kind greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Gary is so good keeping you focused even with that horn blaring at 19:40. Definitely passion driven content. Two thumbs up.
I wish there was a way to show the amount of soldiers that were here super imposed on an overview of the battlefield to show the amount of people crammed into this town. Would be an interesting photo. Great d ocumentary!
This channel is splendid. Well done 👍. Thanks again for taking us along and sharing this important place in American history.
I really enjoy these live videos. Thanks for posting.
Love how YOU bring the other side of the battle was reconstructed here ! The little forgotten details ! So many little things like this means a lot forgotten history brings it more too life ! Thank YOU !
Lived in Arkansas 37 years grew up in Kentucky. Currently back in Kentucky. And loved the Civil War History Thank you all for sharing this!
Palm Springs Ca... great work. Every video so interesting and well done. Thanks for your work.
Lazy day watching UA-cam on 50 inch smart TV - great set of Civil War videos! Just reached to the 'kick the dog kennel' bit in a slightly later video. BTW, I'm from Liverpool, UK, watching from Cebu, Philippines, if anyone is still counting the distance away from Gettysburg. Enjoy!
I am from Louisiana and when we toured the battlefield a year ago our guide took us here to view where the Louisiana regiments fought. It was an amazing visit and very cool to see a part of the battlefield that many don’t know about.
Glad I finally watched this! Great tour and photos!!
I love American History
From 🇧🇷
This is a great notes in History. I never got a tour of the town. And what happened there. I have enjoyed your videos. Very much. Thank you for sharing
I met the guy who built the mural at coster Avenue
from myerstown pa and our town center cemetery holds a 1st day hero (recended medal of honor) this battlefield gave me my love of history which brought me to be serving in berlin when wall came down.....i took pride in my hometown hero having been made famous for taking the regimental colors to the extreme flank to appear longer. .. and my own takeing my nations flag 110 miles behind cold war lines... would like to hear the story from the pros.....
Great stuff, interesting speakers, very informative - watching in the UK
Great work !

Can't wait to see what they present this year!
Corona virus helped me relearn not to forget the US History.
My grandfathers did not come to the USA until the 20th century, and they missed out on all the excitement at Gettysburg.
Jeffrey Carter here in nashville Tennessee . great video
This was great, thank you!
thanks GUYS...
The old adage " Get there the firstest with the mostest". Buford is, in my opinion, the hero of Gettysburg. He prepared the battlefield in the Union's favor on the first day of the engagement.
That was great thank you
Great video, love hearing all the interesting facts, learning new things about the people and the battle!
Thank you for a video full of information. Really enjoy you guys!
when Louisiana Tigers showed up it was game over for Coster's brigade...
American History is very interesting ; thanks very much for this great vid.
Wait? What? The town did an incredible job of preserving the buildings? Up to 3/4ths of the buildings there during the battle remain? From my research, most of the buildings have been purposely torn down by the town. Considering that not a single building in the town proper was destroyed during the battle...whered they go? Of those remaining, many, if not most, have been horribbly altered. Look at the German Reformed Church, and the Welty House.
What about the adourning house to the Welty House which was stupidly torn down to add a driveway to the school.
Unreal!!!
Other than that, it was a great tour.
Great job guys!!!
Love the walked through. Mine is, "Well have the Devil to pay!"

My 2nd great grandfather fought with the 154th NY.
I watched the Ken Burns documentaries on the American civil war, which was very absorbing. What l found interesting is the proportional number of casualties, one in ten killed, matched the casualties in the English civil war, one in ten killed. between 1642 and 1649, adult male population died,: more than three times the proportion that died in WWI and five times the proportion than in WWII. A bloody and traumatic business, either side of the Atlantic.
With all due respect, I have watched Mr. Gary Edelman on a number of episodes. However, as a presenter, I would like to humbly suggest that he cut his coffee intake by at least half. He talks so fast and loud that I think he believes he is running out of time. Other presenters could take the same suggestion. This history is important but these gentlemen need to realize how they deliver their monologues.
He drinks decaf
Wasn't Sgt. Humuston ( I think that's how it was spelled) Killed? And would the other Grassy Avenue be VonSteinwher Ave?
He was killed, died in the yard of a residence all alone with the picture of his children in his hand.
love the content, but the quality for 720p is really awful
Heck ya Tim, Beastie Boys! Lol
Greetings from Va.Beach,Va.
So. How does a line fall apart? Guys see overwhelming numbers and just run?
Lol at Tim calling out the Beastie Boy's 😆😆😆😆👍👍👍 You guys aren't THAT nerdy after all
I-I watched the entire thing and I’m very spechless

Hey hey yall
hey thats my professor!
The angle of attack, so to speak, on those shells protruding from the two houses are suspicious. Much to straight in. I would think they would of been showing a more lobbed trajectory...
I enjoy the videos: thank you.
The modern political undertones at the begining, remind me how it's possible for one group of people to get fed up with another group's narrative and wish to distance themselves from it.
I must have missed it ...... distracted by the dude that’s jacked up......
Where?

LOL, GEEK ALERT!
A little more enthusiasm please, Gary 😃
1st amendment auditors always film the police and everything in Public
Why is he so figiity. Relax and tell the story. Take a breath
This is wonderful, however . . . two or three of the six presenters talk way-y-y too much leaving little opportunity for the others to contribute. And everyone is babbling too fast leaving no time to absorb what's being said . . . Cheers!
The guy in blue needs to get back on his medications.
That's a pretty mean thing to say. Troll.
Gary Adelman is very passionate about what he does and is familiar with time constraints on Facebook Live streams. So he tries to pack it all in as quickly as possible and gets a bit over excited haha.
My favourite line is when captured confederate soldier says” we’re fighting for our rights” (rats)! 😂
