Over 149 years ago Gen. Robert E. Lee’s Confederate Army fought an epic battle against the North’s Gen. George Meade. The result of this battle shaped the course of America and affected also that the World. Regardless of which side you are partial to you have to wonder what would have happened in World War I and II if America had not been the united industrial power that it eventually became? Look inside for a moving video of a 1913 reunion of veterans of Gettysburg from both the North and South.

As a big fan of history, the American Civil War was one of the darkest hours in the country’s brief existence. The Battle at Gettysburg defined the war and even though the South lost the battle, it showed both sides what each other was made of. Great story!
