Lee's Wagons of Wounded Warriors with Licensed Battlefield Guide Tracy Baer 

Wow! You gotta have this guy on again! He was fantastic 👍

I was a couple years late to the addressing Gettysburg party.... thought i went back and caught up, but heres a fantastic video i must have missed. This is a very very interesting talk. Thanks Matt!

I've listen to this focussed, a great story, very good told. I like the part with the 4th texas colonel and the presentation is very good. I will see more from your channel for sure

Wow, this program is interesting. I never realized the Confederates were as far west as Greencastle. I love the story of Benjamin Franklin Carter of the 4th Texas.

So interesting. Thank you for making me feel like I was there.

Fabulous channel. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent show!

What fascinates me is that while all this is going on - at the same time alexander gardner is travelling to the battlefield to make his photographs.

Try watching reatreat from Gettysburg. Very good

Really late to the party. To answer part of the casualty question. "Missing" means not present for duty at the muster and unaccounted for. Could mean deserted, shirkers (who may later have returned), stragglers, were not around for the muster and no-one knew their whereabouts (but returned later), captured, dead and the body virtually obliterated or unrecognizable. Total casualty #s are highly dependent on when the unit held a muster and made a report: company to battalion to regiment to brigade to division to corps could take some time. Could be days or even weeks after combat. Mortally wounded & Died of Wounds: the former is someone who is alive in hospital but has no chance of survival; the latter were evacuated alive but subsequently died at the aid station or hospital, usually the same or next day; so similar categories with a slight difference. Also, figure about 10-15% of the wounded may die in the following weeks, months, even years. Chamberlain technically DoW, but not until 1914. The combat fatality rate fell from 55 to 12 percent between the start of World War II and the most recent conflicts, as did the KIA rate from 52 to 5 percent. In the Civil War twice as many soldiers died of disease as from hostile action. In the Spanish-American War, 9 times as many, largely from tropical diseases such as yellow fever. In WW 1, disease deaths were higher than combat deaths, 63,000 to 51,000. WW II disease deaths were 10% of battle deaths. 50% of amputations during the Civil War resulted in death while only 5% of amputations in WW1 ended in death. The chances of dying from a battle wound dropped markedly from 1865 to 1918. The difference? There was an organized military medical system, including front-line surgical care, early evacuation, and sophisticated rear area hospital. By World War II, the first antibiotics were available, transfusion of plasma and blood was routine, and shock was treated more effectively. Mortality from wounds dropped to a few percent.

Wonder if there was any "rebel yelling" during the bumpy ride out of Gettysburg?

War sucks
