i have been there three times..i consider it close to a holy place.
A long time ago, a young man, on his honeymoon, drove from one B&B to the next with his bride, passing through Gettysburg, Valley Forge, ( they gave you a CASSETTE TAPE for the auto tour!) and places in Maryland wher ethere were markers set up for each regimental. There is an old picture, somewhere, of that young man standing next to the marker that honored the regimental that came from where he grew up.
He also stood next to the one where his adopted hometown had their marker. He thanked them both, and got in the car and moved on with his bride towards their next spot in MAryland, wandered to Virginia, and then back again.
He's old now, doesn't have that car anymore, doesn't have that wife anymore, and still remembers the solemn of those battlefields and seeing in his mind's eye, how deadly and how hard those battles were, with much respect to them..both sides.
Now, whatever is in your eye, please take something for it, because i know you aren't crying, it's allergies.
Bonjour RVerTV superbe vidéo sur "Gettysburg Auto Drive Tour - National Cemetery" J'attend les vidéos avec impatience pour la beauté et ainsi je m'informe mieux sur l'histoire des USA --- Bonne Route --- Alain MICHEL --- France
Such a solemn and beautiful area. Walking in the footsteps of men and women who died for our freedom 🙏🏻🇺🇸❤️
One your best YT videos. What a solemn reminder of this country's history & struggles, especially given today's political climate between Dems & trumpicans.
Hey Jane, you meant to say Demorats and Patriots.
Those trees are gorgeous
Would have loved to be your tour guide at Gettysburg. Have been there many times. Each visit and learning more about this great battlefield of 1863 causes a desire to learn more about the battle, soldiers, the civilians, etc.
I live about an hour and a half from Gettysburg. My husband and I went just about every year for 30 years. Most people don’t realize how vast the area of the battlefield is. The place really gives you a sense of awe.
Gettysburg sure is beautiful country.
At 18:01 The barn has a hole in it from a cannonball. I was there in 1971 during our HS senior trip and was told that by the tour guide.
That is the Spangler farm. And yes there is a hole in the stonework still, where a cannonball went through it 👍
I yelled at Russ to turn around and check out that farm, but he didn't here me. One of many stops to make.
I have wanted to go to Gettysburg for many years now, thanks for the tour! It's suppose to be a very haunted battlefield.♥️
You learn from this stuff, otherwise you're doomed to repeat it. God, what an impressive place.
We were there in the 70's, I Remember How Quite it was Around there! Respect for all who are Buried there!!!! Safe travels!!!!
Thank you . So much history is being lost every day ,especially for our youth , soon they will not understand what this all means.At one time I had to explain the Civil War to a high school graduate. Again thank you for the tour.
Great video Russ, one of the best you've you have done, thank you for the drive.
I have always been a Civil War history buff and have always wanted to go to Gettysburg. I've seen pictures of this but seeing it on a video makes it seem more alive. I memorized the Gettysburg Address in history class in 1955. I can still remember it almost word for word.
Great video! I love the birds singing. Thank you for the video Russ.
This is one of those times adding a bit of whiskey in my cup of coffee seemed to take the chill out of the air.
Loving every minute of your videos!! Places I would never get to see otherwise... Thank you for sharing!!
Gorgeous trees and nice buildings. It’s a very scenic tour. Thanks, i am enjoying this trip.
This is one of your best videos ever Russ. Yet it still can't let us know of the sounds of battle, the smells of gunpowder and the cries of people in battle. It took days upon days to bury the soldiers that fought bravely for their country. It is amazing yet sad that we had wars here or Europe where ever they may be. Today it is our local police that are fighting for our freedoms in the streets everyday.
A thousand times thank you for the historical tour. 😊
Wow there is just so much history there and so many things to see. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for this video. Many years ago, while visiting the Park, I sat down under the trees in the Cemetery just gazing out and pondering. It was very moving. After a while, through the quiet, I heard the footsteps of a man walking towards me. He was a reenactor, dressed as and looking exactly as we picture Abraham Lincoln. He asked me how I was feeling, and I mentioned solemnity and reverence. As he looked over the Cemetery, I could sense from my view of his profile, somberness and even some pain. He spoke to me as Mr. Lincoln would have, talked about having to give a speech there soon, and said he was praying that he could find the right words to say. He stayed only a while, and I watched him walk away. I will never ever forget this. If I didn't know better, I would say I spoke to Mr. Lincoln himself that day. Gettysburg National Park has special places, and every visitor will find their own.
It was so cool to see this all again. my family use to take yearly trips to the Battlefield, some of those things I
haven't seen in almost 50 yrs. Next year when I start my travel Gettysburg is on my list
Russ, You have shown some great travel videos in the past. This one will be hard to beat...Thanks
Great Video Russ ! The Beauty there is hard to absorb because of the pain and death.. For the Cause of Freedom that so many gave their lives to just to see our country now falling to it's knees. Such a Shame !
Well Rush it's been an awesome ride I really enjoyed myself since we left Arizona incredible ride the south is so beautiful thank you for bringing up my friend I hope we had all the way up past st-lawrence Seaway would be too cool for school
Best video yet. It was the first secession we dealt with. Never forget.
Howdy Russ!
Gettysburg Battlefield and it’s museum should be on every American’s bucket list. You can feel the history that happened there.
Russ, that is truly a wonderful video of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania! 👍I can remember that huge Murial of the battle that held me captive. The tour was great. Thank you.
(Did you know that cemetery is haunted?)
Mural. Huge mural
There's not one field, hill nor building that isn't haunted there, including the entire town. It's freaky when paranormal things happen there when you're aren't even looking for it.
Thank you Russ for the tour. Beautiful trees and landscape. Amazing.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💥
Excellent video Russ! Thank you for sharing your vacation with your viewers also. I’m a caregiver for my parents for 3 years now and unable to have a vacation so your videos are my escape. 👍
My Great Grandfather fought at the Calvary battlefield with Cobb's Legion.
Thank you for a great ride around Gettysburg. We have been there 2 times. My Great Grandpa was in the war there. He was in the Pa..Thank you again. Also so glad you saw the shot in the ice cream place. Our son lived there for a few years. There are more shots in different buildings. Also there was a place we went to eat that had a hide out for the runaways...Under ground railroad.
This is a great adventure you are taking us on, Thanks for letting us tag along. Sorry for the rain, we spent 4 days there a while ago, and still didn't get to see it all. Yes I am a history buff. Safe Travels.
Well done!👍👍
Excellent video Russ. Those buildings and monuments were amazing, I wonder if any of them are haunted due to the fact they are so close to the battlefield.
We have been to Gettysburg twice. One time we went and it rained the whole time. We got out and explored anyway. We got completely soaked and had the best time of our lives. Since it was raining park was not crowded which was great. Thanks for the walk down memory lane
About 20 yrs ago my wife and I spent 3 nights hanging around various engagement points late at night. The air was still and clear. U almost could feel the presence of the spirits of the soldiers. It was kind of exciting and creepy at the same time. Neither of us will ever forget it. Thanks for the video.
My great great grandfather went to the last reunion there in 1938, he died the following year.
Thank you Russ for your ongoing insightful holidays and data information shares. So very interesting. I love history as you know so find that trip down the coal highway so informative...Bless our ancestors hide for the job they did bringing us to the year 2021. They deserve such credit from us today.
Wow, I had no idea of the scale of the battlefield until watching this video. Thanks Russ!
A solemn and beautiful place.
Well said. It truly is Hallowed Ground.
Thank you so much for this wonderful tour!!
Thanks for sharing in Georgia video, pretty cool driving tour the battlefield. When my daughter was in school we actually did a bicycle tour. Last time we were there we did a bus tour.
It's such a beautiful , haunted area. I'd love to go back and spend more time there. Pennsylvania get some hard rains in the summer. Right up there with the Arizona monsoons. Thank you for the tours.
The 7 minute movie at the visitors center is amazing and exciting. Tells how the Civil War started and ended up in Gettysburg.
@12:50 - that looks like the Union line with the cannon pointed in the direction where Pickett's charge took place - the decisive (and losing) moment for the South in this battle.
My parents took me in the summer of 1964. As an eleven year old, I was enthralled as we had just studied the the American Civil War in social studies class that year.
Great RVerTV guided tour. Very interesting
Thanks Russ 🚐
Beautiful drive! Thanks for Sharing!
Russ, The NY memorial you showed for a second looked like Abner Doubleday's name was listed. I believe he is the person with establishing Baseball. I know the Baseball Hall Of Fame is in Cooperstown NY.
Correct. He's buried in Arlington National Cemetery - Also, if you see the Civil War-era movie Glory (1989), you will see soldiers playing baseball.
Well done Russ.. Great content. Watch you every week and this episode really touched me. I've been to Gettysburg and taken a van tour which I feel is well worth the price. I learned a number of things watching you tour the battlefields that I never knew and never brought up on that van tour... Many Thanks for the great work... all the Best.
Thank you Russ thank you 🙏🏻
Churches are nice. Would like to head out that way for a vacation 🙂. The history of the civil war is amazing and I relate to it on the struggles I have been given in my existence. So further more thanks to all Union Soldiers who gave Americans their freedoms through struggle and sacrifices. 😤
You could only imagine ! Cannon's , musket's, no shoe's on some , no coat's, troops were hungry on both side's fighting for freedom only to have people trying to erase it in 2020 because of hurt feeling . I wish all school's would require every student to visit Gettysburg ,PA and learn some history.
Great tour as alway's.
we love rver tv - thank you Russ
I was there 11 years ago. Greetings from Germany!!
Thanks Russ. I've never been back east.
More, more, more all the great places roads and sites i traveled. all in my hometown area. Great that you enjoyed it all. Lot of hours spent in Gettysburg. Cool.
Local lindo, fantástico..👏👏👏👏👍👍🇧🇷🇧🇷
For a tour, you could have stopped at the major memorials so as to let the viewer read the inceptions. I realize there is so much to cover in your short amount of time. I did stop by on a cross country trip. So beautiful. Thanks for the tour.
The deadliest battle of the Civil War! Could you imagine what that area must of looked like after the battle? A great channel to follow is American Battlefield Trust if you would like more information.
Hi, Mr. R. Welcome to the East. I love your vids from Az. Lived in Az(Kingman) moved to the east from AZ
a couple years ago...welcome, it sure is different than Kingman Az
huh? Enjoy friend, enjoy.
Lots of informational signs here on the road! Great viewing! 💵
Russ, this is the best show on TV... RV TV! I don't watch the other kinda TV.
Very cool thanks for sharing.
Once again a nice video sir greenish everywhere nice ⛪ and cemetery keep moving sir.njoy the ride 👍👍👍❤❤❤❤
my wife and i toured the park on our motorcycles back in 2003. so much history, lots to see . amazing park . great video, thanks russ........
I counted 432 cannons on display as you were driving through this historic area.
Thanks beautiful!
51,000 men were lost in that battle alone. Almost as many as we lost in Vietnam war total, 59,000 I believe. There are many souls in that on battlefield
The tour guide was worth it. There was one stop where the tour guide pointed out that looking over the field toward Eisenhower's house , you could walk across the field and never touch the grass... Let that sink in...
Wow in my back yard. Sorry about the weather. I am just south of Hanover. Enjoy the journey.
We did the cassette tape narrated tour, and if I ever go back, I'll do the guided tour. A guy at work did, and he highly recommended it.
Thanks for the tour of Gettysburg. Two quick points,,,, the grounds get worked on each year to restore the view of 1863. Some differences still exist. And secondly, Gettysburg, the battlefield and the town are both very haunted. I am surprised that you didn't go on a ghost tour. Or did you?
My 2nd grandmother's brother died on those fields during the last day of the battle. He served in a regiment of troops from Ohio.
Impressive
Salute!
Years ago there used to be a restaurant in a tower where you could look out on the whole battlefield.
The memorials are like chess pieces to follow the battle. The terrain was so important, it was almost a third player in the battle. You should check into it. Watch the movie Gettysburg to understand a little better.
Can you imagine how much work was involved in clearly this. Land for farming
Good to see you again. I've heard of people having reactions to this Civil War area. I actually reacted to this video which I'm surprised at. Forgot your email address. Theresa Rodriguez
Dig the folksy vibe, keep up the good work😉
The work of art that is North Carolina monument of the three soldiers was the work of Gutzon Borglum who sculpted Mount Rushmore. Dedicated in 1929.
Hey Russ!!!"GREAT" "SELF-GUIDED " T O U R!!! Be Safe!!!
planning to ride my motorcycle over there and tour the area next week
...A lot of "unknown's" as I don't think I.D. tags were used at that time....It was a soldier's personal decision to carry some form of identification, and a lot of them could neither read nor write, so having a scrap of paper in your pocket with your name wasn't likely.....We learned a lot about the American civil war here in Canada and I always wanted to visit these historic places, that "Little Round Top" was the site of vicious ongoing battles due to it being a high spot overlooking the battlefields.......I was imagining how tremendously noisy it all must have been..........Thanks for the 'armchair' tour Russ.......
Hi west of Battlefield Missouri there a Battlefield that a Gen was kill. Wilson's Creek National Battlefield.
And North East of Springfield at I44 & 65 Hwy there's a Confeterate Cemeterie
Hi Russ bet your glad you are back there and not in Arizona right now with all the fire s. Take care be safe Russ. From Oregon
1:48 - "sit back and enoy the ride"
Pushes CAST button and sends RVerTV to his 46 inch TV and soundbar.
That's better.
There were plaques in front of some of the trees. You were talking about how big the trees were. I’m pretty sure it told how old they and if they were there during the civil war. I’ve seen these before in other historical parks
Riding shot gun with RVTV heading to 2 cool 4 skool thanks for taking us along Russ great videos like alway. Very enjoyable too watch be safe and travel well the grandkids say hello lance and family
Let me know if you go through lancaster!! Stop for a bite on me!!! Love your videos great entertainment!
I was there 60 years ago
I walked Pickett's charge. You really get a feel why they were unsuccessful starting out from the woods to the ridge. When you stand on the ridge, you realise how futile the attack was.
Hey Joe 😊
Made the tour back in 1990.
How about that 115°-120° in your Quartzsite area this coming week?! Enjoy the rain.
