I appreciate how Angry Staff Officer on twitter contextualizes Gettysburg & made me appreciate the history even more.
It's one thing to have historians tell you how bad of an idea Pickets Charge on July 3rd, 1863 was. It's another to look at these 3 pictures and piece together how absolutely insane this charge was.
Imagine trying to cross that open field in the 3rd picture while being shot at from all the cannons in the 2nd.
