Driving the Battlefield in Gettysburg (2018)
Driving the Battlefield in Gettysburg
On July 12, 2018 we visited Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, and on one of our stops we drove a section of the battlefield starting at the John Sedgwick monument, making our way around and up through big and little round top, back down to the John Sedgwick moment. This video was a live stream which we shared with our viewers during that trip.
More information about John Sedgwick:
John Sedgwick graduated 24th out of 50 cadets from the West Point Class of 1837 and served in a variety of posts, including the armies of both Taylor and Scott during the Mexican War. In 1855 he became the major of the 1st Cavalry Regiment, whose colonel was Robert E. Lee. Sedgwick took over from Lee as Colonel when Lee resigned his commission.
Sedgwick went on to command a division in the Peninsula, where he was wounded. He was wounded three more times and distinguished for gallantry in the East Woods at Antietam. He briefly commanded the 11th Corps before being given the 6th Corps, and performed well during the Chancellorsville campaign.
At Gettysburg the 6th Corps was the last to arrive on the field after an epic 30 mile night and day march. Although much of the corps remained in reserve during the battle, various portions were committed as needed at scattered points about the field. At one point Sedgwick found himself commanding units on both the extreme right and left flanks of the army.
After Gettysburg Sedgwick continued to distinguish himself and the 6th Corps. He was killed by a sharpshooter at Spottsylvania on May 9, 1864 shortly after announcing that “they couldn’t hit an elephant at this distance.” He is honored by a monument on the Spotsylvania battlefield near the location where he was killed. John Sedgwick was the senior United States officer killed in the Civil War.
A lifelong bachelor, Sedgwick was buried at Cornwall Hollow, Connecticut.

Battle of Gettysburg Diorama
We are visiting the battlefields of Gettysburg, Manassas and others. This is the largest Diorama in the United States and the historical detail is amazing. Cemetery Ridge, Little Round Top, and Pickett's charge all all there.
As you drive and walk around this huge sacred place, you see monuments, graves, statues everywhere.
Benjamin Franklin once said refering to the death of Richard lll of England at the Battle of Bosworth Field, for want of a nail, the shoe was lost; for want of a shoe the horse was lost; and for want of a horse the rider was lost.
The Battle of Gettysburg was not just a big battle back then, the outcome determined not only the future of America, but the world as well. If Colonel Chamberlain's defense of Little Round Top had not been successful, the Confederates would likely have won in Gettysburg, and gone on to win the war. America would have fractured, then broken in two and not have become the world leader we did become. Entire world history would be much different and darker without a whole, vibrant, UNITED America on the world stage to defeat all the horrible ism's that have plagued the world. Thank you, Colonel Chamberlain.
