Lewis Armistead and Pickett’s Charge - 2024 Battle Walk with Ranger Matt Atkinson 

He's having a beard!! Saw him last year in Gettysburg 160, without it . Great guide! The best. Was honored to be a his walk.

A second StuffWriter/Matt Atkinson video in as many days! I guess we’ve been living right to deserve all this.

Matt's the man! Good to see him again!

Thanks Stuff Writter for taking the time to film Matt's Battle walks. I learn something new every time I watch.

I’m here 22 min after the author uploaded the latest video!! I’m proud to be one of the first to see this! Lol😂 thanks so very much to all involved. Your programs have been a great addition to my life. Very enjoyable. Good ol Matt. I hope to catch one his programs one day soon. Bucket list item # 23 😂

Another outstanding job by Ranger Matt Atkinson...

Omg another one?? This is like when Dan Carlin at hardcore history comes out with a new episode every 10 months. Like Christmas in June lol. Thx Stuffwriter and Ranger Matt. 🙌

Another engaging, enlightening and entertaining walk from Matt. A walk with him is on my Gettysburg bucket list

A few weeks ago, I saw Matt face to face for the first time in 5 1/2 years. My wife and I were regular battle walkers with him for years. After she passed away I lost interest in a lot of things. It was good to reconnect with Matt after such a long time. I'm slowly getting back into the swing of things. Good to see you again, buddy. John

Omg!!! I can’t believe I missed this walk!!! Armistead with Matt!!!

I've watched Matt a thousand times, every single video he's done and I still enjoy his tours and lectures. I'm across country from there but one of these days, I hope to get there and take a tour of his. I despise war but I enjoy learning about the Civil War. Thank you for sharing, Stuff Writer!

Love seeing Matt's battle walks even after being to Gettysburg and walking the fields dozens of times.

Even over here in the UK, we've heard of Ranger Matt.

Thank you so much for posting these! I’ve been so excited to see more by Matt. Matt is one of the best guides and teachers of history I’ve ever heard. (And I was a history major.). So thank you for all the effort you put into this and to Matt for embracing it and sharing his knowledge with us. 😊

Looking forward to the revelation of Little Round Top’s reopening. The last time we visited there was with my late father, shortly after his 90th birthday in the fall of 2017. He was still good for a fair bit of up and down and hiking about, enough to challenge this then sixty-something son.

Thank you stuffwriter, I learn more about our history with every video

Great work capturing the rise of the ground through the walk, the defilade is there but it vanishes by the time you get to the final position. I cannot imagine attacking that way without direct support. Like Hill 112 near Caen, the idea of the lives spent for such terrain leaves me with an abiding sorrow.

Thank you as always for the knowledge , quality and asides that make this so incredible !

Very cool to see another Stuffwriter video with Matt! I got to meet Ranger Matt in 2022 and he's the same on and off the camera. It's cool to see the videos but being there in person is the only way to truly see the battlefield.

Thank you Stuffwriter for putting these videos up of Ranger Matt Atkinson. It's like I'm there. I love listening to Matt's stories.

Now you're just spoiling us. Thank you Mr mysterious stuff writer!

Thank you StuffWriter!!

Fantastic battle walk.. I get goose bumps every time I hear the story of this action. Thank you!

I love listening to Matt's stories. Learn something new every time. Cheers!

Dat beard...... . . . . . . . . . . . . Looks good Matt.

Would really like to do this walk with Matt. Excellent presentation.

Another great video. Love you, Matt!

Outstanding - a New Matt video! And now with goatee too!! 😀

Another Matt masterpiece, thank you Mr Stuff Writer for sharing.

Nice job Stuff Writer and Matt! Another great lecture tour for us who couldn’t be there. Thanks!

That beard!!! How long has the beard been there?? I would love to challenge Matt as my favorite ranger to cover my beloved 1st Minnesota. Just to see him hem and haw and admit that them d*mn stubborn Swedes fought as valiantly as his Mississips! Love you Matt. And thank you Stuffwriter

Thank you for another one.

@StuffWriter delivers again! Thank you, Sir, from those of us who can't get there every year. My considered opinion is that Ranger Matt has been working on that goatee since December.

Outstanding job Matt

Ranger Matt Atkinson the Official/Unofficial voice of Gettysburg. He could describe making a PBJ or BLT with such pizzazz that would leave a peer in awe.

Love Matt he’s the best

Why is that Longstreet quote “going in without Pickett is like going in with 1 boot off” so famous if Pickett’s division had been chilling the past year and growing their numbers?

feeling spoiled another Walk :) Lets go :)

Another great video - anyone know what the bird is singing at the copse?

1:42:53 “You gotta come up Lou, god damn they’re flanking us!”

These walks on the battlefield can be very informative. It would be nice if when the speaker points to an area or is speaking about a particular area if the camera person would turn the camera on that area. We don’t need to constantly see the speaker or the audience. We would like to see the area being spoken about. This particular video has been much better than in previous years but we still have a very limited view in many cases.

Great men indeed

Matt is a cool cat

Gettysburg season. 😊

I'm a little confused he just said there was a trench by emmitsburg road that held over 500 dead confederate but then says a total of 499 killed on the battle numbers don't add up lol

Read that book.

Miss it a gain

Matt what the heck is that on your face lol

weird....

We here in Pa. don't like people bringing anything but American flags across our fields ! Then we had to send Sherman into Georgia with payback !
