The American Battlefield Trust preserves America’s hallowed battlegrounds and educates the public about what happened there and why it matters. We permanently protect these battlefields for future generations as a lasting and tangible memorial to the brave soldiers who fought in the American Revolution, the War of 1812, and the Civil War.
Thanks to you, Chris & everyone involved with the Trust’s coverage of Gettysburg 159. You all did great, as usual!
YES!!! More Gettysburg content!
Thank You Sir - kind Sir...
Once again, you guys are putting on the Best (159th) Anniversary coverage! Yes, I've told my friends, and invited them to watch too! Thanks, Gary, and all of you at ABT!
Thank you Garry, Kris & everyone else involved in this year's coverage. I especially appreciate the detail and time spent around Stony Hill that Kris and Evan hosted. I have just over 100 relatives in the family tree that served in the Civil War, and I've spent time drilling down on the history of one in particular... Cpl Naum Apgar, 110th PA Inf, Co B. If my research is correct, that Company was part of Sickles' Corp during Gettysburg, and the main action for him was situated near the ravine just east of the Rose farm, south of Sherfy's and the Peach Orchard, and next to Stony Hill.... part of de Trobriand's brigade. As Kris noted, fighting was intense. When they were relieved by brigades from 5th Corp, they retired west and joined the 17th Maine to fight in the Wheatfield. That was tough as well. They were relieved by units from 2nd Corp with ammunition running low, and I believe moved to the south end of Cemetery Ridge near Little Round Top for the night. On July 3 they supported the artillery batteries at that end of Cemetery Ridge. Naum survived Gettysburg, and survived for another year, but was KIA at Deep Bottom late July of 1864. Hopefully I am piecing all of his history together correctly. Again, appreciate all that you folks do as it certainly does add a tremendous amount of knowledge to help understand what happened and what they experienced.
I was there three weeks ago and I was all by myself. There was no one else around. A good time to reflect on what happened there.
I have thoroughly enjoyed all the Gettysburg stories on the 159th anniversary of this terrible battle from you and all your guests. Thank you and the ABT.
Thank you Garry, Kris, Sarah, and all others who shared stories! This year was great! Learning about soldiers stories was so much fun!
You guys are awesome! I love the videos there’s so much to learn about what happened in Gettysburg! Thanks for posting these videos keep it up!
Thank you Garry!
Garry, once again a great job by you, Kris, Sarah and everyone involved, and thanks for this cool Bonus video. I haven't been to Gettysburg for the battle anniversary, I usually come there in mid July(will be there in two weeks actually) and sometimes in September. I am going to try my best to come there for the 160th next year for sure! Keep up the great work and will see you at Antietam for the Image Of War!
excellent bonus ! thanks ABT
Gary is awesome. Please keep up the good work.
Great Video as Usual
So grateful for your efforts! You all really made the 4th for everyone special!
Thank you to the American Battlefield Trust, Garry, Kris, and all your guest, for providing an excellent anniversary video collection on Gettysburg.
Outstanding as always!
Thanks for the awesome videos!
Thanks to everyone involved for the videos. BTW, could someone ( if I am saying this right) talk about Hampton Rock?
Thank you for this video this is a really great history lesson
Loved the bonus video
Why are parts of the battlefield not allowed to be visited? The whole point to understanding the battle is to be able to walk the grounds on which they were fought.
SAVE OUR BATTLEFIELDS AMERICA 🇺🇸
From Germany see all !!
It's possible that Rebel artillery specifically targeted Gen. Sickles, who allegedly was on his horse. At Chancellorsville, Gen. Alpheus Williams wrote that he was sitting on his horse, 'Plug Ugly', when a Rebel shell exploded under the horse and tossed both rider and horse into the air. Luckily, neither was seriously injured. Rebel gunners had the skill to fire and hit groups of horsemen and even lone riders.
Please discuss the weather situation after the battle if you haven't already.
