Thanks Tim. 👍 From a drafted disabled Republic of Vietnam combat veteran '68. I've hid in bunkers with rockets and mortars landing around us. It sounded like the loudest thunder I ever heard. People would never have forgotten those sounds.
Thank you for your service and true statement. I am the proud son of a veteran of the Big Red One that was also there in 68.
@@djriddleandgmoney5930 Thanks. I was a crew chief on OH 6A helicopters and with 1st Aviation.
@@fastsetinthewest A-10 crew Chief here :)
@@djriddleandgmoney5930 Top secret planes arrived at the Vietnam Airfield in '68. Some Major walks up to me while I was working on the OH and says no pictures. He must've been a goof and did not go through chain of command. I wasn't assigned to him. Alas, funny.
@@fastsetinthewest Nice
Theirs a wonderful little restaurant/bar in Gettysburg that has a dining room and bar in a lower - lower cellar. It's a cellar below the cellar. I forget the locations name but it's history dates back to events that happened there even as far back as the Revolutionary War.
Dobbins house?
I think that may be it.
Good evening sir. This is Ted from Texas. I moved here a few years back to escape New York. When I lived in New York I visited Gettysburg quite often. I love the town and this history. I do Civil War re-enacting and I always did it in Gettysburg. I've been to many of the places that you've been to in your episodes. I know the store on as well and some of them even thought I was a resident of Gettysburg. Thank you for bringing this to us and showing us more details that I've ever known before. Maybe one day I will see you in Gettysburg. Stay safe
Great information. How scary for the residents.
Excellent Job. Thank you Tim.
I'm from Virginia and pro Southern but this had to be pure terror for the residents of Gettysburg and everyone else for that fact.All this is a huge opportunity to learn many things new.Ive been a reenactor since the 70s and I've done both Confederate and Union all these years but one thing is for sure. I never stop learning.
Pro southern? You lost.
Wish I was there this weekend, love the history of that town.
Great narration. Thank you.
Thanks for focusing on the civilians. I wonder how many of them suffered from ptsd after the battle. My mom was Belgian and had to do exactly that during the WW2 in the town she lived in. Sometimes it was from shooters. Sometimes it was from bombardments and aerial battles. The cellars were arched vaulted stone and the homes in the town were built side by side. The people cut thru the walls to link cellar to cellar in case a building or the whole block collapsed.
Wow! Hard to imagine the panic and confusion.
Nicely delivered Tim. You could probably get the same sentiments from any civilian populace in the path of armies in the field.
I miss Gettysburg, I'll be at the Tilly Pearce in August ☺️, but dang I need a day trip before that 😁💯
One of the biggest battles ever ‼️‼️
Thanks!!!
Enjoyed another video today!
Tim is the man
I'm related to Anna Garlach. John Garlach used to live in the Garlach house, don't know if he still does.
Even worse had to be the stink of all those dead bloating animals and humans all over the landscape. I heard that the oder permeated in the heat and stayed for weeks and months. Gettysburg was a horror and a nightmare the residents would never forget.
Hard to imagine ‼️🇨🇦
They must have been terrified
GENTLEMAN SCHOLAR.... Thank u.... would never see the places u been... in all yer vids.......
Such a waste...all for nothing.
Slavery is dead. So there is that.
