Pickett Got the Glory, But Who Paid the Price at Gettysburg?

Описание: The glory went to a single name: Pickett. But the price was paid by thousands. This is the story of the other men in the most famous failed charge in American history.

While George Pickett’s name became immortalized, this video shines a light on the forgotten participants of the July 3rd assault at Gettysburg. Who were the North Carolinians under General Pettigrew, already battle-weary, who formed the left flank? Who were the men in Trimble’s brigades who stepped forward into the same storm of canister and rifle fire? And what of General Longstreet, who knew the attack would fail but was forced to lead it?

We trace the pivotal and tragic hours of the assault, exploring the human experience behind the legend. From the anxious moments waiting on Seminary Ridge to the devastating advance across the Emmitsburg Road and the desperate struggle at the Angle, we honor the full scope of the sacrifice. This is an examination of memory, cost, and the countless individuals whose stories are condensed into a single, misleading title.
