To attempt to experience the third day of battle and in order to understand what the confederate soldiers experienced during what is known today as "Picket's Charge" start from the confederate line with a stop watch of some sort, start walking, taking time to close up the line because if it really were July 3, 1863 a bunch of your friends would be blown to bits right beside or in front of you and you would be ordered to dress the line. Right before or right after you have to get over the fences at the Emmittsburg Road, start moving double time. When you make it to the The Angle check your stop watch and consider that were it 1863 you might not have made it at all. Prior to the battle of Gettysburg Union troops suffered heavy casualties during a similar charge at Fredericksburg. That is why as the Confederates neared The Angle they chanted "Fredericksburg, Fredericksburg!"
