My Great Great Grandfather ( PVT Charles Gocha F Co 24 Michigan was wounded shot left knee at Mc Phersons Farm. Ironically my Wife's relatives fought for the 26th North Carolina Caldwell County Units. The Civil War devastated America but our country survived. Thanks Officer Hewitt, great presentation.

Bill, I have always wanted to spend time seeing Gettysburg,,,,, but for many reasons I never have!!! You are the next very best thing!!! You heartfelt presentation had a huge impact on me! I realize it’s been several years since this presentation was made but it still and I believe will always have its intended purpose! Maybe people nationwide understand the affection for our forefathers and there love of state and country! Your intended emphasis of family and brotherly love was well taught! Your family and children should be proud of you!!! We should also realize that we may need to sacrifice again to prevent communism, dictatorship, Marxism, Muslim extremist or any other threat to country that so many have died for !!!

We have been to Gettysburg three times and just self toured but these videos have convinced me to revisit this summer and attend as many of these presentations as can be squeezed into a three day weekend.

Thank you for this Bill Hewitt & GettysburgNPS! My brother, grandfather & great uncle have done loads of genealogy research. They discovered that our great-great-great uncle fought for the 24th Michigan Volunteer Infantry. It’s great to read books about the Iron Brigade & the 24th but Mr. Hewitt goes into fascinating detail about what all the men went through on this fateful day. Thanks again!

Our family just returned home from a trip that included Gettysburg. You folks do a very good job at keeping up the parks and having folks to talk about what went on at each. Thank you very much!

I really enjoy those video clips posted about the often neglected 1st day of the battle at Gettysburg. Mr. Hewitt did a good job describing the whole nine yard if you will! I hope you continue posting these!

I am from Caldwell County, NC. However, I don't agree with what they fought for, in any way. Such a sad, sad time in our Nations history. I would like to visit Gettysburg someday, to pay my respects to ALL of the fallen soldiers there. Very informative Video.

Amazing presentation. Ranger Hewitt conveyed the gravity and deep loss that this horrific battle caused. Thanks for doing all these soldiers justice.

A great video! I did want to mention, however, that some of the information regarding Romulus Tuttle (at around the 47 minute mark) was incorrect. Romulus was not the sheriff of Caldwell. That was Robert Gaius Tuttle, father of John A Tuttle, who dis not die at Gettysburg, but rather was killed at the battle of Bristoe station. John was the cousin of Romulus, the captain of Co. F. Romulus also had a younger brother, Columbus, who was at Gettysburg, and survived the war.
