Pickett went to Lingstreet to ask if he should advance. Longstreet didn't give the command, but Pickett moves. ∞ -
@ Pickett: For God's sake, come quick. 18 guns are gone. Come quick or I can't support you. ∞
-
...and our infantry, hidden behind a stone fence, is pouring death into the ranks of the advancing foe. ∞ -
@ Pickett If you are coming at all you must come at once or I cannot give you support; the enemy fire has not slackened ∞
-
The Rebel army now advances, but our reserve batteries have replaced the disabled ones... ∞
-
The enemy fire is by no means as affective as it should be. nine-tenths of their shot pass over our men. ∞ -
The enemy artillery is heavy. It seems madness to to send a storming column into the face of it, under this July sun. ∞
-
The rebel artillery has opened with a fearful roar, along their whole line. It is said they have 140 guns in position. ∞
-
Our long line of guns break loose in the very joy of battle. The smoke fills the field and blocks our view. ∞
-
There was a brief lull, but now the cannonade has recommenced with unexampled fury. The damage being done is fearful. ∞
-
We will fire about 20 minutes before Pickett marches, to give him support. ∞
-
We can hear distant guns and take it to be Couch's advance. I think the rebs will rue the day they came to Pennsylvania. ∞
-
When under a very heavy fire, we were ordered on Culps Hill, to the support of Gen. A. Johnson. ∞ -
It appears that Ewell has been driven back with heavy loss, and a great many demoralized stragglers can be seen. ∞
-
Water is scarce ∞ -
I can't see that either side has an advantage. 2 divisions of the 12th corps has held Ewell's corps at bay for 7 hours ∞
-
We've been ordered to support Pickett in a movement toward the main Union front. ∞
-
-
The Rebels are getting batteries into position all along the Seminary Ridge. ∞
-
It becomes evident that Lee is preparing for an attack on our main front. ∞
