    Thank you Wayne and the Gettysburg Foundation for these videos. My wife and I were in Gettysburg this past week and walked the entire West Cemetery Hill that was featured in this video.
    Two weeks ago, we walked Green Lawn Cemetery in Columbus, OH. as we watched Wayne’s video on that.
    We love it! Keep up the great work.

    Pretty amazing. You can walk and drive through these areas and never know the fighting that occurred there.

    Great Wayne - Thanks!
    My wife & I are 'Friends' and enjoy visiting when we can.
    Ironically, we were biking the battlefield last weekend and were on Queen Street. We have also stayed in the Welty house on a previous trip.
    Your walk really connected the dots for me.

    Outstanding video Wayne. I’ve never studied this section of the battlefield in this level of detail . This really helps a lot.

    Great explanation of the participants and locations of the units. It’s difficult to imagine the actions in that area. Your detailed explanation of what was and wasn’t there at the time of the battle was super duper!

    Excellent video, Wayne ! I have a much much better idea of the fighting that went on in the skirmish line. Something I was never able to put together on my own thanks.

    Great stuff Wayne!
    Has anyone ever figured out where Meades HQ was during the 4-6?

      See Page 225 of William Frassanito's Early Photography at Gettysburg. He discusses this and has images.

    Wow I really learned a lot from this video. Wayne, where exactly did the 16th Maine under Charles Tilden make their stand on July 1st?

      This is at Oak Ridge First Day Fight near the RR CUT
