Tim Smith is a living legend

Thank you Tim. Makes me think of Patton and the 3rd Army. But, to gather Lee’s Army at Gettysburg and not think these men would be prepared for a conflict. Ewell and Rhodes, Johnson’s and Early’s division’s and to coordinate. All with Lee’s plan. Thanks for Sharing!
💯👊👍

I would rather deal with farm traffic than rush hour traffic everyday of the week. I'm quite happy as a Adam's county resident. Even going downtown Gettysburg is a PITA lol

[@N2Dressage001]

Why Johnson went all the way around and didn't take a more southerly direct route via the Arendtville road, is SO critical. Had he been there to support Early, who got the closest to Cemetery Ridge but had no support, things might've been a whole lot different.

The shoe myth was also promoted by Ken Burns.

This is about "roads" and "Rhodes?" Trying to be funny, Tim? 😆
