This week:
Melee at the Brickyard: The 134th New York on July 1, 1863
Ranger Andrew Regiec, Gettysburg National Military Park
Explore the courage and sacrifice of the 134th New York Volunteer Infantry Regiment. As Confederate Forces overwhelmed U.S. 11th Corps on the first day of the Battle of Gettysburg, one brigade was moved into the town, to keep thousands of United States Soldiers from being cut-off and captured. Of the brigade’s three regiments, the 134th New York went into the battle with nearly 400 men, only about 32 made it to their fallback position that evening.
