- Historian Codie Eash and Licensed Town Guide Rosanne Zajko join Matt and Six Question Lentz on the western slop of Seminary Ridge to discuss the first day of the Battle of Gettysburg with a focus on the action in and around the Lutheran Theological Seminary. This year, we've added a new element to all three of the battle anniversary episodes by including the civilian experience with a Licensed Town Guide.
From the Seminary Ridge Museum and Education Center Website:
"The Battle of Gettysburg. The Cupola of the Seminary building is utilized as a lookout post by Brigadier General John Buford and his Signal Officer, Lt. Aaron Jerome. From the evening of July 1 to July 5, the building is in Confederate hands, but is occupied by hundreds of wounded United States soldiers. The U.S. Army retakes the building after the Confederate retreat and, until mid-September, the building is one of the largest field hospitals in Gettysburg. After the last patient leaves the building on September 16, classes begin within eight days."
Be sure to visit their website, donate or become a member and definitely visit it when you come to Gettysburg. Make sure you get a cupola tour so you can yell down to the lawn: "There's a Devil to pay!"
And, while you're here, hire a Licensed Town Guide who will share dozens of civilian stories that will most likely be new to you and will help you get a fuller picture of the Battle of Gettysburg.

Tremendous episode! Codie is one of my favorites and Matt did a great job interweaving Mike and Roseanne with so many micro stories involving the town, the citizens, and the troops.
Thank you so much.
This day-by-day retelling of the battle coinciding with the 160th is absolutely thrilling to me… I guess I’m a Gettysnerd now.😅
Welcome to the party
I love the anniversary episodes, I always look forward to them. This one is particularly good due to adding the civilian accounts. Great job Matt!
Thank you! Glad you like them!
Love hearing this episode. Happy they are a bit longer then last years. Can't get enough ever. Great guests. Happy Birthday Matt!

Gettysburg and Bastogne. Importance of converging roads. Playing a HUGE strategic roll in two huge and historic battles.
💯
and Waterloo I believe
Great episode as always!!! But who ever coughed at 2 hours and 1 min in, scared the sh!t out of me! I was mowing my lawn and wearing a headset and my god did that catch me off guard! I am assuming it’s Six Questions Lentz!
Hahaha

At 56:48 Ah, yes! That moment George Burns made an appearance at Gettysburg lol. Dunno why that made me laugh out loud, but picturing him there, cigar in hand, making wise cracks left me laughing.
😂😂😂
Love the podcast!!! Keep it up bud!!
Thanks! Will do!
The birds squawking in the background is killing me 😂.. but i enjoyed the episode
You mean the lovely sounds of nature don’t calm you? 🤣
On Day 3-Lee's orders were to take Cemetery Hill- the Confederates didn't do it. That combined with 50% of Pettigrew's/Trimble's Divisions running away, back into Seminary Woods, instead of attacking along with Pickett's brave men- NONE of which ran away- cost the Confederates victory on Day 3. It wasn't because of Lee's plan- it was sound- his men (and artillery fuses) let him down. That is, EXCEPT for Pickett's men who were the bravest men at Gettysburg.
Sounds almost mythical. Perfect Lee. Not a single human among Pickett’s men who gave in to nerves. Remarkable! Amazing that they lost the war with such supermen.
@@addressinggettysburg Do your homework- read 'Pickett's Charge- Eyewitness Accounts' by Richard Rollins and then get back to me with your assessment of the day. You learn history by reading what the people who were there had to say- not the historians' accounts. Good Luck in your education:)
👏🇮🇲
Which flag is that?
