  "What I do not know... I know how to learn." - JL Chamberlain. For this reason, he is one of my favorite personalities of the period and beyond, the modern question about the bayonet charge notwithstanding.

  Great presentation!!  As a Maine native and Army veteran, I love hearing the "back story" of these events.  Wonderful job.  By the way, I've been to Joshua's in Brunswick; delicious burgers!!

  I’m binge watching every GettysburgNPS lecture and other channels regarding this battle as I prepare for my second visit to the park in 30 years. Ranger Gwinn’s portion of the lecture explaining the various perceptions of the fog of battle as witnessed by different veterans who were at the same action resonated with me as a Marine infantry officer veteran. It’s so true how combat can have so many viewpoints from men in even in the same place at the same time. This is an OUTSTANDING lecture. One of the best I’ve watched! Well done.

  Unforgettable presentation. I am one of those who have visited the mystical Little Round Top. But I learned a lot more about what we know, and what we may never know, from this presentation. Bravo!

  My late husband & I went up to Little Round Top one summer night 8 years ago it was pitch black out. We took a video and the 2 things that were unexplained are chilling. The video is on my youtube channel. I have never been moved by any other place I have visited like I have been and continue to be each time I visit Gettysburg. I do not understand why I am so drawn to that hallowed place. I still visit even though I greatly miss my late husband with me. I will be going up this end April for my birthday. I know most women would not want to celebrate their birthday at Gettysburg; I just can’t explain my pull to this area. The first time I ever went on to the Wheatfield battlefield I was overcome with emotion as the guide told the story of what happened on that particular battlefield. I had to walk away from the other visitors in my group because I just could not control my sobbing thinking about the men that lost their life.

  Outstanding.  I sure hope that 5 Feb presentation on the rehab project and those new results is streamed.  I'm just too far away to go ...
