Normandy Hedgerows mistakes71 viewsOne thing not thought of beforehand, Normandy is dotted with farms that use hedgerows to protect their fields from the wind and divide them. The Germans used these to their advantage and mowed troops down with gunfire until the Allied forces caught on and also used them.

George Washington slept here!71 viewsThe only officer tents to survive are those of George Washington which have been well cared for and handed down through family. These ended up with the wife of General Robert E. Lee, a descendant of Martha's. Martha was a widow with children when George married her. He never adopted her kids though he loved them. During the Civil War, the tents were taken to the US Patent Office for protection and eventually given back to the Lees. George had this setup even when he had a room in a house as a sanctuary.

Pickett's Charge made it this far71 viewsThe charge was both brave and brilliant with southern soldiers whooping and hollering like madmen to scare the northern soldiers as they advanced. They came sooo close, within 400 yards of northern lines before they were stopped.
