Another view of the Angle facing the advance of Lee's army. Monument in the background depicts the hand to hand fighting that took place here.
The marker for the spot where General Armistead fell after leading his men across the field of Picketts Charge. Less than 200 soliders made it across the rocks at the Angle.
The National Cemetery. A beautiful and reverent resting place for the men who died on these fields. Very moving to stand near the markers for the unknown dead and remember the sacrifice they made.
A view of the field of Picketts Charge as the men who made it saw it. Try to imagine walking all that way under fire. Copse of Trees in the center in the distance.
Confederate artillery on the field of Picketts Charge.
Another view of Picketts Charge. The Round Tops off to the distance on the right.
