This battle, like so many others fought in the state as well as in Maryland, is a testament to the stubbornness of the Army of Northern Virginia.

So great learning this battle history. My GG Grandfather, Valentine Vogt Company D 99th Pennsylvanie, fell at Spotsyvania Courthouse May 12, 1864; bullet through his head. No burial records; surely buried in a mass grave. He left behind his pregnant wife and 2 young girls in Lancaster Pennsylvania.

140th NY again, “Rochester Racehorses”, lost their colonel at Gettysburg and lost another colonel at Spotsylvania Court House. Very interesting history for this Regiment

@@derekrupert2013 there is a book called “sons of old Monroe” but it’s very rare and often expensive (Monroe is the county where 140th formed) There are some books of the first Colonel Patrick O’ Rorke, 1st in his class at West Point. “The beau ideal of a soldier and a gentleman” both are very good reads if you can’t find them There is another great book called “where they fell” which discuses all the regiments from Monroe County in NY, it’s also a bit expensive

I have a direct ancestor who was at Laurel Hill. He was in the 6th SCV Band, Bratton's Brigade, Field's Divsion, Anderson's Corp, Army of Northern Virginia. Bratton's Brigade was at that location at that time.

My home county Luzerne in Pennsylvania, had a company in the 11th PVI. They were at Laurel Hill with the V Corps. I think they fought against Kershaw Division of the Confederate ANV.

I'm not American, but am learning a lot more about the particular battles of the Civiil War from your videos for quite a while. Keep it up! ( A small suggestion for dimwits like me---is it possible to mark camera location even on the maps showing the displacements of the troops during battle? When I look at the view the camera give, it would help me to picture the battle and the location of troops. Ain't complaining, ........sorry, eh?)

I have to admit the overland campaign is one of my favorite campaigns to study from the Civil War. It really the beginning steps to the end of the war. Yes terrible casualties would amount in the length of a month but eventually Grant would lock Lee into a siege around Petersburg and Richmond for the next 9 months. And finally ending the bloody and costly war that plagued this country for four long years. I could only imagine how Americans felt back then. The war probably felt like it lasted a hundred years for them.

When did you film this series? You are all wearing coats and even gloves. I am pretty sure that it was pretty warm these days. Excellent content as usual.

Slightly bummed that you didn’t mention Colonel James Rice and the most badass quote of the war: “Turn me so I may die with my face to the enemy” (as he’s laying mortally wounded at Laurel Hill)

I’ve watched all of your videos this last week. You all are awesome but Chris’s mic is annoying. Are you recording internally? I’m wondering if that audio is also bad.

Almost sounds like even with all the major top brass losses the rebs have taken to this point they are still very much an affective fighting force. This strategy the rebs took during the overland seems like a strategy they should have taken during gettysburg.
