Thanks Vince. I might never get to go to Gettysburg, so this looks good. I'll sit down with a beer over the weekend and give it a proper watch.

Cheers,

Colin

Hi Guys,

I haven't been back to Gettysburg for 20 years or so and miss it, I found this video (its very well done) to jog my memory and get more insight into where and what I saw. I find myself stopping the video and finding other virtual videos about a specific part of the battlefield that goes more in depth into something that sparked my curiosity. The "American Battlefield Trust" channel on YouTube is a good source of all of these videos and feature alot of Tim Smith and Gary Adelman two guys that I have always enjoyed watching and reading their analysis of the Gettysburg battle, their enthusiasm is catchy. The National Park Service also has virtual tours and talks about the battle that I found to be good as well. Im sure Im not the first person to pick up on these videos here but I found the Virtual tour with Garry Adelman to be exceptional.

I enjoyed this video too, [Read More] they walk the heroic charge attack line" of the first Minnesota which was virtually wiped out.
