The Devil's Kitchen at Big Round Top: 159th Anniversary of Gettysburg

Thanks!

I love this Channel. Thank you

Thanks!

Gary thank you for this video

Always a pleasure to tune in Love It!

Love seeing these lesser known spots on the battlefield. 👍🏻

I've been to Little Round Top and Devil's Den.

Thank you so much for this video! Ban away for those that don’t get it! And thank you for doing so!

Well done, sir

Very well done. Boy I need to get to this battlefield it’s only a few hours away… I remember going with my parents when I was a young lad, and mostly I remember a big “animated” map showing the battle (what passed for animation in the early 70s)

battle of Gettysburg was such a mess for the Confederates

Thanks!

Garry, if everyone could love their job the way that you do, the world would be a happy place!!!

I've only seen the movie Gettysburg once, but I'd bet money the quote from Hood was "Worst ground I ever saw"

I hope you're not saying that a Jewish person is a bad thing.

Leave it to y'all to find a spot less traveled. Thanks for all your work,

I have been to Gettysburg twice and Antietam

I feel your enthusiasm Garry! I always want to learn more.

Well now I know Gary Adelman is a gambler lol

Thank you for all that you do. I am wondering if you have any knowledge of
Whiney's landing? A Civil War battle which took place in white county AR.
Located about an hour NE of Little Rock.

Love to see something more in depth on Big Round Top.. great video! 👍

I would love to with permission to use a metal detector in the area and see what I find. They must not have collected all the balls

So good Gary!
Keep 'em coming!

Well Garry. At least we know you're NOT a gambler.

I have The Killer Angels on my night stand as I type.

Primo, as always!

One of my favorite places... yep, it's due to the movie! Great job as always, Gary, you make us all feel very welcome here, and are such a great teacher!

Was going to go up Round Top trail in May but two women who had just come down said there was nothing to see there. If your in a hurry, don't waste your time.

Garry, your battlefield work is like the crack cocaine of history. So easy to get addicted to it. So grateful for your efforts!

Would love to have Garry and Dr Gary Gallagher for dinner and discussion it would be great! i cant of course, as I am in Northern Ireland!!!¬

I never knew the 20th Maine had two positions on the field very enlightening

Thank you for showing this terrain and sharing some stories. I love the person helping others over the boulder. That commitment to maintaining the line in the face of such rugged terrain is admirable. Their drill masters would be proud.

It's no secret that the Civil War changed warfare across the world and killed Napoleonic tactics but it's really interesting to me that tactics have changed so much.

Marching across a battlefield in formation to the point of climbing over rocks and through potentially hazardous brush to maintain formation is crazy. Now days infantry tactics are built around being mobile and nimble and independent.

What I love about these videos, is that I can use them in the classroom to give students a chance to see what some of these places look like. They just see the black and white photos and don't really see the size and scope of the battlefield. It is also nice to see your enthusiasm Garry. It shows my students I am not the only one excited about history! And a quick shout out.....I LOVE THAT SHIRT :-) :-) I have a warm cozy spot for it all ready :-)

The amazing thing is that they were dehydrated, malnutrition and sick and still managed to do their duty.

Thanks Gary

I saw the movie, great. But just wondering – some of those trees don't look very old. Were they actually there at the time of the battle? Or was it more open?

I never heard that before on the limitations on moving forward

Great videos question how does one search for ancestors who where in the war and where they fought I had family in Missouri and Kansas ?

Thank you Gary A. I have caught your enthusiasm for CW history.

Thanks!

Garry, that was Sgt. Val C. Giles of the 4th Texas who said the quote! Hurrah for Texas!

Seeing the actual terrain is priceless 👍👍

War is logistics! The officers should have known and dealt with the water situation.

Blasphemer

It's easy to forget the terrain and it's multiple effects on tiered legs, blistered feet, being hot and uncomfortable and thirsty but still they went forward .....

I always love the stories which are rarely told. You are all so good at that. Thank you for the hard work.

What's sad is that
Lt. GENERAL Thomas Jackson was leading, but Love John Bell Hood... (The sacrifice Hood gave.) And Law... God Bless Every last man of them
And the reason Goldsboro stopped and got water.. It was 90+ degrees Fahrenheit outside and had been for days: With no rain in 6 weeks prior. "Devil's Den" is a proper name, for it. Union never did take "Devil's Den.

I had a great uncle in the 47th Alabama. Sgt. William Berry Griffith. He surrendered at Appomattox and lived another 50 years.
3 of his brothers died in the Summer of 1862 from disease. His youngest brother was in the 13th Alabama, and was wounded & captured and at Pettigrew's charge. He was traded and discharged missing an arm in 1864.
