Dr. Reardon was my American Military History course professor at Penn State. She also took us on a Battlefield walk at Gettysburg - will never forget it!

Dr. Reardon, you are a National Treasure. God Bless🇺🇸

Love to think of someone watching this during ‘Gettysburg 258’ because you have all made a terrific permanent record of the battle’s nuances this year. Something that will always remain invaluable. The three of you fit so well together, each bringing a great change of pace when following each other. Besides, you two get to work alongside a national treasure in Dr. Reardon! Great job.

Dr. Reardon gave a remarkable presentation about this lesser known battle that deserves to be remembered.

Thanks Dr. Reardon and to all of you for that excellent description and the visual you provided. Grumbles would have appoved. Thanks.

My 5th great grandfather was a Alabaman private in g troop of the 6th cav . It is amazing to see these places our ancestors saw.

Excellent presentations. Thank you all.

The ABT has hit a home run as always!

Thank all of you, I always look forward to this, I hope next year we can do this again.

Great video! Thanks, Dr. Carol!

Great 158 series. Thank you

I have watched all the videos. I especially like seeing Carol.

Brilliant and thoughtful presentations. Thank you for your sensitivity and warmth.

Great story, thanks for telling it, I had never heard it before.

Fascinating and tragic at the same time.

Never been out there either. Great work. Next year go to Vickburg.

I could lister to her breakdown of events all day

Great presentation as always, thank you ABT and Dr. Reardon.

I have become a fan of Dr. Reardon because of these videos. I had no idea who she was before. Very knowledgeable, well spoken. But I guess that's why she has the credentials she does.

EXCELLENT Narration and Presentation ! Very well Done THANK YOU and FYI the M 24 "Chaffee " Tank was also named after Chaffee !!

You are an excellent orator carol! Thanks for the info. Will be in Gettysburg for a few days at the end of the month, and your info has been interestingly informative.

Fantastic content! Thanks

LOL...Curmudgeons...I am familiar with the lot, being an Amateur Radio Operator, they are commonplace. I could listen to Carol Reardon for hours.

Thank you, Carol. Never heard this story. It was riveting!

Road is busy. Thank you for this.

Professor Reardon is the best. Drop the mike here.

Wow, my great, great grandfather was a trooper in the 6th U.S. Cav. Fortunately for me his company and one other were picked to be the escort guard for Maj.General Pleasonton . So he was not present at the Fairfield engagement although his company had a ringside seat for Pickett's Charge.

@@Gravelgratious my GGG was in the 6th U.S Cav. William Sherrow - he was captured at First Funkstown on July 7. 1863.

My great-great uncle, Frederick Merkle, served with the US 6th from the beginning and survived the war. His brother, Lewis (Suel) Merkle US 6th, was KIA at Yorktown, Penninsula Campaign.

Stopped by this site a few years ago when we stumbled upon it - interesting to hear more detail about this action.

You should do a video on all the German men who came over here to fight on both sides.

She is really cool

Why is it that no one ever talks about the lesser known battle that took place nearby in the predominantly Italian village of Spaghettysburg?

First, the traffic on that country road is crazy. Second, the M24 Chaffee tank was named for Adna Chaffee Jr.

Not a retreat a tactical withdrawal.

General John b Gordon in his memoir said they waited the whole day of July 4 for the Yankees to attack but they didn't come.

Very interesting video! Please, move the camera around more. It's not necessary to keep it so focused on the speaker. I've noticed this on different videos. So many people want to see the terrain and to know points of reference without staring at the speaker. Just a friendly suggestion, but thanks for your intense study and good work.

Interesting

She’s awesome

After the first day why General Roads didn't help General heath in attack union forces

There was a Chaffee tank, right?

This all happened BEFORE Starr resigned in 1857?? Something doesn't add up there...

Can you tell me what the highest level of education Chaffee obtained?

Planting soybeans thought you might like know.
