Addressing Gettysburg

Go to the Virginia Memorial, get out of your car and walk out into the field on the paved path that skirts the treeline and you will come to the marker for the Point of Woods. It is said that Robert E Lee stood in this area when he famously said "It is all my fault."

Recorded at Winslow's Battery, smack-dab in the middle of the Bloody Wheatfield, Matt, Bob, Guest Guide Jessie Wheedleton and "Mahoney the Producer" braved the cold and the Coronavirus to bring this episode to you. Don't worry. Our mics had 10 foot cables on them and we kept our distance [cough] excuse me.

Questions on this episode cover:

-a general overview of what happened there

-The US Regulars

-The PA Reserves

-The Corn Exchange Regiment

AND MORE!

The 1st Minnesota was the only Minnesota regiment here at Gettysburg. Its strength varies between 260 and 280 men. They took aroun 80% casualties after facing four times their number.
