    The 1922 Marine Corps Reenactment of Pickett's Charge | Rich Kohr | Ask A Gettysburg Guide #134

    Isn't Gettysburg history so interesting, the more you dig into it? We think it is. And this one is something we would have loved to witness.  In 1922, the US Marine Corps was fighting for its life. Many in Washington, including the Commander-in-Chief, wanted to disband the Marines even though they fought valiantly in WWI. So, the Marines campaigned to stay alive by showing the American People who they are and why they're needed.  General John A. Lejeune had two goals for the Marine Corps. He wanted Marines to become better fighters by learning from past wars and testing new ways to fight. But he also wanted the American people to see the value of the Marine Corps at a time when some people were questioning whether the country even needed it. Instead of holding military exercises in places far from the public, Lejeune wanted to bring the Marines to famous historic sites where people could watch them train. As Gunnery Sergeant Thomas E. Williams explained, the Marines could practice working with artillery, armor, and aircraft while also putting themselves in front of the American public. Gettysburg was a perfect place to do it. At the time, Gettysburg and other national battlefields were still controlled by the U.S. War Department. That meant they could be used for military training. General Smedley D. Butler took command of the Marine base at Quantico, Virginia, in June 1920. He is credited with the idea of holding these exercises on famous American battlefields. Butler believed the Marines could study the decisions made by Civil War commanders, practice their own skills, and give the public a chance to see the Marine Corps in action. The idea was simple: train the Marines while also showing Americans why the Marine Corps mattered. LBG Rich Kohr joins us to talk about this lesser-known event in Gettysburg's history.

    Why Muskets and Other Small Arms Were Devastating at Gettysburg | Gettysburg163 | America250

    ***A brief departure from Ask A Gettysburg Guide for the 163rd Anniversary week*** Battle Anniversary Week Special | Small Arms at Gettysburg with Phil Spaugy As part of **Addressing Gettysburg's Battle Anniversary Week of Specials**, Matt welcomes firearms expert **Phil Spaugy** for an in-depth look at the small arms that shaped the Battle of Gettysburg. When most people think of Civil War weaponry, they picture cannon fire and massive artillery duels. But the vast majority of the fighting at Gettysburg was carried out with **small arms**—the rifles, muskets, carbines, and pistols carried by the soldiers themselves. In this episode, Phil and Matt explore the weapons that Union and Confederate soldiers relied upon during the three-day battle, including: 🔹 The legendary **Springfield Model 1861 Rifle-Musket** 🔹 The imported **Pattern 1853 Enfield Rifle-Musket** 🔹 Sharps, Spencer, Burnside, and other cavalry carbines 🔹 Colt revolvers and other sidearms carried by officers and cavalrymen 🔹 The advantages and disadvantages of different weapons systems 🔹 How weapon technology influenced tactics and battlefield effectiveness 🔹 Myths and misconceptions about Civil War firearms Whether you're a seasoned Civil War enthusiast, a collector, a reenactor, or simply curious about the tools soldiers carried into battle, this conversation offers fascinating insights into the weapons that helped decide the outcome at Gettysburg.
