Gettysburg, PA Battlefields

Gettysburg, PA is the culmination point and decisive point of the American Civil War.  From the early skirmishes between the Union Cavalry and the arriving Confederate forces, through the defeated Pickett's Charge, and the 20th Maine holding the far left flank with no ammunition on Little Round Top, the Battle of Gettysburg is one of the most studied battles in American history.

You know these trees were standing during all of these historical events, it's like they are witnesses to our history. I am a dork, I know.
