Battle of Gettysburg--150 years later

I visited on the 3rd. Friends of mine from NM and AZ came back to attend the weeklong events, so I drove up for the day. No kilt, but I was in period uniform throughout the day and evening (we had dinner with Gen Lee).

I've noticed during my many visits to Gettysburg that there are often at least half a dozen General Lee's around town!

Ah! From the Clone Wars.

It's really interesting reading about the ancestors that fought so bravely at Gettysburg. My hat is off to the brave soldiers who fought so gallantly on both sides! My grandfather's grandfather was a Confederate Lieutenant. His name was Elijah Phineas Daugherty. He wasn't at Gettysburg, he fought in Missouri and the west. He was born in 1827 and died in 1916 and my grandfather knew him as a little boy.

Interesting Maj. Gen. Meade is not seen very often?

Or Pickett? Or Chamberlain? Or Stuart( oh wait...he'd have to arrive fashionably late if at all so, in essence, his absence is portrayed by the other 7 billion people world-wide)?
