Ranger Matt Atkinson leads a battle walk covering the actions of Alfred Iverson and Edward O'Neal's brigades on July 1.
Note: A major heat wave resulted in the walk being done entirely in the shade on Oak Hill for visitor safety.

I really hope Matt has an idea of the amount of fans he has. Not all of us can make it to one of these walks. Thank you so much for posting these!

Agreed he’s most entertaining and n formative: I’m disabled and learning a great deal watching and listening from my wheelchair) ( from Ohio and now reside in VA which of course has many battlefields have a lot to visit and see if and when I can drive and walk again😬

@ElectrikNYCfunK Год назад

@@lespangen Heyhey! It is what you make it new friend! Try your best to enjoy all the battlefields & history, luckily there are alot more wheelchair accessibility & people out there always willing to give a extra hand if needed. Virginia is very beautiful!!!

In history class you only get the big picture. With Matt you get the grunts eye view, well done! Matt's the best.

@jacobmasters438 5 лет назад

Thank you for all the videos posted. Matt Atkinson presents the information of the battle so well that anyone who listens, can gain knowledge of the battle. As a dedicated member of the American Battlefield Trust. It is very nice to see the younger generations on our battlefields. Only through them can these battlefields be remembered in such a way that countless generations to come can benefit through it's understanding.

Tremendous videos and thx to ALL park ranger guides. Scraped my shin on a stone wall at cemetary hill while walking in the snow a few years ago. It was perfect. Hurt at Gettysburg. 😬 Visitor center and panorama room were excellent.

@zettle2345 5 лет назад

Thank you stuffwriter and Matt... The question I am left asking myself is this: If Rhoades was such a competent commander, Why did he order an attack into the face of withering cannon fire? Because he had ordered his troops to hide from said cannonade, by withdrawing into the woods they would have to leave to make this attack???

@palibrae 5 лет назад

It's "Rodes"...but can you name one Civil War commander who did not order a frontal attack against artillery? Iverson and O'Neal had their attacks broken by infantry fire, by the way.

@marymoriarity2555 5 лет назад

I honestly felt all such walks should have been cancelled. It was nonsense asking any employee to do an outdoor tour and dangerous for visitors. The park had no sense st all.

@rayflores2471 4 года назад

I guess everyone should just stay at home and watch television. I swear people are so pampered today they think anything with even a remote amount of any danger shouldn't be done. How about we just plaster everyone in Kevlar to make sure everyone is perfect safe? I have no idea how these tours are any more dangerous than people getting out of their cars and walking the battlefield or should people just sit in air conditioned busses and view everything out of a window?
