This video is part of our series commemorating the 161st Anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg. View all of the videos here: • Gettysburg | 161st Ann...
I must say, I visited Gettysburg several times as a child with my parents and thought I had a certain level of appreciation for the complexity of this battlefield. It wasn't until I brought my own family, after having served in the military, that my eyes really open up about this historical event.
I really love Col. Dowds presentation. So much energy and concise descriptions.
Hopefully, I will make it to Gettysburg, maybe next July. Of course I'm an old Texan so I will be scouting out the other side....I love watching your videos because they explain so much.
You are keeping us sane .in old England europe. Thank you
Love Gettysburg 161...kudos to all!!! ❤👍
Time to go LIVE and feature those "Mad" Georgians of Wright's Brigade!😎
Garry and Col. Douds and The Harrisburg Museum artifacts. Makes it even more personal. Kris your knowledge is invaluable. Thank you for your dedication! 💯👊👍
I've been on and watched a lot of park ranger tours and I'm REALLY sorry to say they could learn a LOT from you guys. If I'm on a tour and it's hot I don't need a lot of long, slow, folksy humor, slow talkers, rambling, or standing in one spot for 20 minutes. You guys do NONE of that. You're the best I've seen!
Great job Garry and Co.
Hey Gary, love your work brother 💪😎
You guys are awesome 👏
Keep up the great work
As a Southerner , what amazes me is how fast you folks can talk ! Sometimes my mouth outruns my brain and sometimes just the opposite . Keep up the good work , as most of the time I can sort of keep up , with closed captions .
Being from Alabama and Georgia I agree with the fast talking....My Great Grand Father Albert Holman Austin Co. E. Alabama 15th. under Col. Oates was captured at Gettysburg and released from Fort Delaware after the war....Have a blessed day....
Rob from Farmingdale, NY here!
Watching this on July 2nd while I watch the movie. One of the greatest war movies of all time.
3 of my Cyphert ancesters fought against Barksdales men at the Sherfy farm on Emmitsburg road. 1 with the 63rd as skirmishers. And 2 were in the 105th wildcat regiment under Col. Calvin Craig fighting alongside the 57th and the 114th Zouaves..
My great great great uncle Captain Wesley Mellard Co H 13th Mississippi Infantry Barksdales brigade fought at the Peach Orchard July 2 1863 near Gettysburg A sad and a terrible day for both sides 😢
Thank you 👍
Look forward to ABT yearly Gettysburg tour thanks for all you do
Great tour Bob Berwick Maine
No one cuts through the fog and chaos of battle, and gives us a clear explanation of the battle on the terrain, like Col. Dowds! I see he’s on the video, I’m there!🍿
Phoenixville!
Phenomenal
Those clouds!
APPRECIATE YOU ABT!!!!!
Amazing info as always!
Just got Tom McMillan's book "Gettysburg Rebels" to read about Henry Wentz, Wes Culp, and the Hoffman brothers from Gettysburg. It begs the question, why didn't Longstreet and the Confederate Army employ these soldiers to help Longstreet get into position on day 2 without doubling back into position late in the day.
Great presentation as usual! That picket fence at the Roger’s farm has a bit of meaning for me. I and several others were assigned to scrape the chipping paint off the fence so that NPS can spray paint it a few weeks later. Not a fun job, but rewarding nonetheless. As a volunteer for a week, I had a bunch of other good manual jobs though (fence construction, brush removal, etc). We actually found a regimental marker that had been covered for some period. Makes one appreciate all the work that goes into maintaining this hallowed ground!
kinda like that dude's baseball stich watch banc
Love the content. Can’t wait to visit again soon. Btw Sarah is a cutie lol
Being wounded was as bad as a lethal shot.
I like the Col Dowds suggestion of attack. Vietnam taught us to a reserve in case we had a breakthrough. The was welcome sight when the call was made. The reserve could also help us secure the forward position. In the heat of battle our position at times was extremely difficult but we were ordered to hold at all costs. I would have thought that serving with the Colonel would have been a pleasure. Hoorah!
I had a guided tour booked for Friday July 5th and they canceled on me I'm so bummed
That stinks. One year we did the audio guided tour which was pretty amazing as well. You can take your time and re-use it on future visits
Sorry to hear. Thats pretty rare but sometimes it happens.
@@AmericanBattlefieldTrust hey it's all good, I still have my hotel booked. Your UA-cam channel is so good I could almost just sit in my Gettysburg hotel room and watch your UA-cam channel lol!
@@anthonyjude4726 thanks for the tip I may just do that. I'm still going, I'm not going to let that rain on my parade. I haven't been there yet, I'm 40 and with all the BS going on in this country I feel obligated to go and pay my respects for those that stood up for the right thing a long time ago in this country
@Chris-of6xm I respect your mindset. I'm 43 and visited several times as my niece graduated from Gettysburg a couple of years ago so we went up every summer for family day. We even enjoyed some of the ghost tours they do at night and many of the hotels even have guest speakers. We had a free private history lesson for about an hour. I do not remember the name of the gentleman who did it but he was great. Hope you have a wonderful time brother.
I always wanted to know if THAT split rail fence was in place & was actually there during the battle...anyone?...
No, wood fences do not last that long at least of local materials in Pennsylvania
Oh, the YELLING!!!
Question; why did they wait till 4-5 pm to attack..?
Amazing program by the way !
Never play poker with Mike!
The motto of the State of New York is ‘Excelsior’, which is Latin and means ‘ever upward’.
Mahone and Anderson were acting like cowards, lounging in Spangler woods with his staff and never crossed Emittsburg Road. Mahone refused orders to advance to support Wright and Wilcox.
Mahone would come in handy at the battle of the Crater though .
Is that watch band made from a baseball?
Any relation to Dan Sickles?
Even though the southern soldiers were guilty of high treason. It’s good to see that farmer enemies could come back together in friendship at reunions. The northern soldiers were not the enemy. The people fight for the south with a true enemies.
mike, your watch band is way cool where did you get that?!
I can’t stop! Dan Dan Butterfield Butterfield Butterfield!
Seems like gettesburg would be more fun if there was rides such as a Ferris wheel or even go carts
