<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Frank, post: 12449397, member: 5421&quot;]There are many photographs of the battlefield, and people have compared them with later photos to identify the witness trees. Really pretty interesting, and it&#039;s surprising how many remain! It&#039;s one of the best preserved battlefields, and I love visiting there.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 15th Alabama had just marched 18 miles, and their canteens were empty. And they still almost pushed those Mainers off that hill. If they had, and had turned the enemy&#039;s left flank, the outcome might&#039;ve been different. But it wasn&#039;t to be. That, and the loss of Vicksburg in the West were two blows the South couldn&#039;t recover from.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
