Lee was going to wreck havoc and chaos to Harrisburg, PA and destroy one of the North's main railroad arteries of supply.

He was sidetracked, should have kept moving north by northeast and kept to the original plan, strategically the north had a superior location with their army he should've known to move on. The south was going to fail anyway just a matter of time for the beat down, Lee just hurried it along.

I don't think so. If not for the conscription act and a near unlimited supply of Irish Immigrants, I think it would have raged to a draw

A carpetbagger was from the North. A Scalawag was from the South. :thumb:

Been there a few times but took the kids last July.

Took this pic of my favorite spot. The monument at the site of the Gettysburg address.

Having played Terrible Swift Sword a few times I can attest to the very difficult position the Confederates are in in this battle.

i was in reading ,PA on job, and we were gonna go in 2006, but they were taking the Chinese customer along

and I hated all those assholes
so I would not go
major regret , after I watched the ken burns civil war


I still don't like Chinese people who take our jobs
no problem with Chinese people being people

the stand in front of a tank guy is my favorite photo

I ended up drinking the "kgb" guy under the table with tequilla shots

I think I won he threw up, and passed out
I only fell down a flight of stairs
