Gettysburg 150th – Pickett’s Charge

The most famous fighting from the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863 occurred in the climax of the battle, what is known as Pickett’s Charge. In an all out attempt to break the Union line, Robert E. Lee hurled three divisions from his army against the Union force. This video was shot at the Blue Gray Alliance’s commemoration of the Battle of Gettysburg, where over 10,000 reenactors came out to commemorate the battle.
