Ask A Gettysburg Guide #43 Little Round Top with Garry Adelman

- You asked. You begged. We waited for the right time and that time is nigh.
Garry Adelman joins us for the first of what we hope is many times to discuss Little Round Top. We try to put LRT in its true importance in the Battle of Gettysburg. Did the Union Army and perhaps the Union itself hinge on one little regiment of barely-tested Mainers? Did the fighting for Little Round Top end when Joshua Chamberlain and the 20th Maine finished mopping the floor with the Alabama boys? What was behind Little and Bog Round Tops that might have made it an even worse day for Hood's Division had he been allowed to "go around to the riiiight"?
Tune in and find out.

GREAT episode! Gary is an American treasure 💎🇺🇸
That, he is
Loved the show; I could listen to two hours "just" on Garry's career alone.
maybe i'll have him back to talk about that
GARY!!! This mans passion is legendary and I love his energy! Keep it up Gary, don’t let those ones who criticize your delivery! I thank you so much for Gettysburg 158! I am off recovering from 2-shoulder surgeries. And the Anniversary posts were the best! Between Tim, History Underground and Atun-Shei and ABT, Adams County and of course this podcast I was kept busy!
Well said
It's awesome to watch a grown man almost vibrating because he's so excited about Gettysburg. Lol
👍
Great show. Gary is The Man.
Good show, Thanks. Gary is always interesting. 🇦🇺
Can vouch that Gary was just as good at feeding people at his Gettysburg Food for Thought restaurant as he is a "storyteller" now. He made a mean tuna fish sandwich and was just as energetic! Loved this podcast!
Thanks! GA
Thank you. Glad you loved it. And I wish I had been coming here when he had the restaurant.
hard to believe Gary 'never heard' of 16th Mi companies with Morrill's Co B on the left. Obviously 16th MI was the regiment on the left first before the 20th Maine. Vinvent moved them right, and their 2 companies were out as skirmishers, the STAYED on the left. (per book struggle for the round tops by Penny and Laine) citation is OR v27 623 Morrill to Chamberlain July and what I think is BP v2 1029 1030. "because the 2 co's of the 16th MI were already there I went in to line on the left of the skirmishers"
Some of the TH-cam animations include them. I've had LBG tours that mention them.......
I just found this show. I love it.
thank you. Welcome aboard
Me too, awesome! Are you guys in Gettysburg recording these?
yes we are. at the visitor center, but not IN the visitor center
So many mentions of the 155th PA. My great-great grandfather's unit. Thanks, Garry!
👍
Enjoying the podcast! Fun and informative!
Glad you enjoy it!
Love this!!!!
I know Frazz, I met Gregory Coco, who I thought was cold, I Mark Nesbitt we had a lot to talk about Northern Ohio, and I met Tim a few years back, at The Farnsworth House tavern, had a conversation with him. But I have never met you, Gary, and I have been going to Gettysburg for 25 years.
Well you’re bound to bump into one or both of us at some point
Entertaining & Informative fellas!! Thanks a bunch!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
So glad I found this channel. And I love Gary's enthusiasm for the subject. Nothing is more exciting than a presenter or guide who so obviously loves their subject content.
Thanks for finding us!
Every time I visit Gettysburg I figure I won’t need much time since I’ve seen a lot of it then I end up squeezing every last minute out of my trip out of town.
Yep. There’s always something more to see
Wow! Wonder how many more Gettysburg guides are war gamers! These Gettysburg channels are quickly becoming my favorites! Great show and one I will likely become a patron of!
Well thank you very much, Doc. That’s nice of you to say
Thank you for putting the videos on facebook. Great stuff
Excellent
Garry's enthusiasm is contagious.
Indeed it is
I could listen to Gary all day. He so passionate and engaging. Being plant based myself I doubt if I’ll make to Gettysburg 200. That would make me 109.
Plant based. Woo hoo! GA
I forgot to get advice on how exactly to do that without starving before he left. I’d like to try it
MOST enjoyable!
👍
Gary is the best!!!
👍
Just subscribed streaming from TH-cam app to my tv. Great channel.
Thank you!
This just showed up on my You Tube feed. Immediate Subscribe! Can listen to these for hours.
Thank you very much!!
How did you keep Gary in a chair for this long? His passion for history comes through in his high-energy story telling (read: active movement!)
duct tape, of course
I love Gary even more, if that is even possible.
Clearly it is!
How could people not like Gary? He looks like a cross between a Peanut and Louis skolnick from Revenge of the Nerds. He's adorable!
Lol
Fun!
👍
That was incredible! Thank you!
Our pleasure. Thank you
Great show fellas!! 👍
Much appreciated!
Excellent. Hooorayyyy. Garry! Big fan, big fan… BTW, Tim Smith/Garry fun rivalry is a blast. My two favorites.
👍
BAYOOOONEEETSSSS!!!!
💯
When I added this broadcast to my running “Watch List”, the message turned out to be:“Watch GA at AG.” Balance, as well as greatness.
LOL AWESOME
“This isn’t being recorded….”
😉😂
😂
New follower here. What is the "map book" that Matt keeps looking at? Is it a published manuscript? Thank you.
that's the Gettysburg Campaign Atlas by Philip Laino. We also recommend Maps of Gettysburg by Bradley Gottfried
@@addressinggettysburg Thanks very much.
Any info on battery L at little round top you can point me to?
www.google.com
How did I miss this?
🤷🏻♂️
I am asking for your insight, I read a book, the eve of July 1 or 2nd, some high personality Union General ordered to position on the road, Chamberlain, emertsbuurg, important road, is it in the left side, so he, this top famous general arrives and sees high ground, he decided to take the high ground and not position near the road...Meade did not know till later, than Meade not happy but recognized he need support...who was this guy who took the high ground? Warren, Sickles? I thought an ex leader like McCleanon, I thought it was big round top, but no Union General ever took big round top, whi took the high ground, where and when, Meade Meade only discovered the next morning, it it his troops had extended further to left than ordered,
You have a lot jumbled up there, but the answer to your main question is that it was Sickles or was assigned a position on Cemetery Ridge but wanted a position that he thought looked better on the Emmitsburg Road ridge. He asked permission several times and always got a “no” but he went and did it anyway. Hope that helped.
We need to put Garry on Ritalin. lol jk. Love Garry as he is. He is excellent at what he does. You're special too, Tim. lol
Lol we don’t want Garry under control
@@addressinggettysburg lol
Cocaine does Gary Adelman when it needs an upper
Hahaha
At at about one hour into the podcast, a listener asked which rock was the location where John Oates was killed??? No one corrected this guy.
What was the error?
@@BJNich78 From Garry's answer, I thought that he understood the question to be "which rock did William Oates claim to have reached during the attack?" And yes, John Oates was killed somewhere during the attack. Sorry for the confusion.
were you thinking of John Oates of Hall and Oates fame? ;-)
@@addressinggettysburg Hah. Not me. The person who asked the question on the air was the person who asked about John Oates. He was the brother of Colonel William Oates.
no, I know. It was a joke. John Oates is also the Oates half of Hall and Oa... ah nevermind lol
I thought I knew a lot about the Civil War...but my knowledge is like a grain of sand on a beach compared to these guys!!!
Oh I know. Makes me feel like a novice
I'm not a fan of Gary's videos. He can't take constructive criticism. He has great knowledge. I have nothing against his energy but on video it's too annoying for me. So they don't have to ban me. I won't be watching. There are many other resources available.
🤷
@@addressinggettysburg Exactly. You got it.
Respectfully, why do we need to know that Gary is “LBG?” I am a big fan of Gary but I could care less about his sexual orientation. So, why did you feel compelled to bring that up? Do you reveal the sexual orientation of all guests? Wow.
I can’t tell if this is sarcastic or not, but LBG is Licensed Battlefield Guide.
Respectfully, I'm going to assume that you're joking because you're clearly smart enough to leave a critical comment. And since you're that smart, I'll remind you of the old saying "where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise." But in case you aren't joking and really don't know, "LBG" stands for "Licensed Battlefield Guide." Context still matters in this world.
I feel like a complete idiot. I understand now the true meaning of LBG in the context here and stand corrected. Please accept my utmost apology. I am obviously too sensitive to all of “wokeness” of today.
@@ram5667 reminds me of that old Nietzsche quote “Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster... for when you gaze long into the abyss. The abyss gazes also into you.” lol I understand. If I may offer advice to help you avoid making that mistake again: stop watching the news; stop listening to politicians; walk in the woods twice a week. Apology accepted. I hope you don't mind me having fun at your expense. It's all in good humor.
People like Gary are why kids don’t want to learn about the civil war these days…. He’s so lame and clearly biased
MCNAIRED! 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 right. They much prefer the dry, Frazier Crane-type with no biases. Oh wait. It’s humanly impossible to have no biases.
Plenty of people could do a better job than Gary. He’s so nerdy it’s turning kids off from history. And no, hosts should at least try to be unbiased when telling these stories.
