The Battle of Gettysburg began today in 1863.    It was a brutal battle to say the least.   

"Gettysburg" was the largest military conflict in North American history.  The epic battle lasted three days and resulted in a retreat of Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia.

Years later, a good movie was made based on the book “The killer angels“.
