    I don't understand why people keep lionizing this ill-concieved, murderous, failure of an attack. Both Pickett and Lee, especially Lee, should be condemned for the wretched tactics involved in the action. The attack is on the same level as the brutishly concieved attack on the Somme in WW1.

    I truly miss all of the good times my pards and I had for the 21 years we enjoyed together while doing living history presentations on the field near the Pennsylvania Monument. 19th U.S. Regular Color Guard of the Ohio Valley Civil War Association. The only unit allowed to retire the national colors at the national cemetery under arms. Marched in proper color guard from Pennsylvania Monument to cemetery. Retired the colors. Presented them to Ranger Thomas Holbrook. Reformed color guard and marched back to jump off point. The number of people who would stop and pay respects to the colors as we marched by was inspiring and heart warming. HUSSAH, HUSSAH, HUSSAH!!!

    As an Englishman ex member of the American Civil War Society (uk) 69th New York Irish Brigade I am deeply moved to see this wonderful film. We did a Gettysburg reenactment in 2002 in England with 2000 soldiers. Not the same scale but it was an honour to take part. Bless you all from your comrades in arms in the UK. I have distant cousins who were on the North and South in the war.

    So well done. Good to see the ladies and lads. Good to see so many younger reenactors. Need more membership in the Sons of Union Veterens. I was once a member of the SVC until I got letters from George Wallace and the Klan (the 60s). My son got a letter from a neo nazi group in West Virginia. A little more research showed by Norrth Carolina relatives had all deserted so I wasn't really eligible after all.

    Wow. Ive reenacted for 30 years. My dad started after seeing the 125th and I stopped after 2012 because of the obvious historical in accuracies. I got sick of seeing 100 or more females cross dressing as union men. Nothing is more obvious then a female on horseback crossdressed with her appendages flopping around no matter how homely they are they couldnt fool a child... I miss reenacting and respect my compatriots that still do it but that is just plain ridiculous... my last straw was at gettysburg in the 2008 when i saw 80 women cavalry on horseback. My fiance was laughing her ass off... i wish i had the video.

    I was a participant at the 125th Gettysburg and my last event was the 150th. We'll never see the scale of the 125th series again. But glad to see it lives on to educate Americans. Great footage, I miss the smell of black powder. I had several ancestors at Gettysburg, 2 on Culps hill. I would love to see a tour of Culps Hill. God bless the 2nd Maryland CSA!
