Notes From a Nurse After Gettysburg

[@Lizerator]

My great grandfather, 27th PA, was wounded at Gettysburg and laid on the battlefield for many days. He survived, was sent to Washington D.C. to recuperate and married my great grandmother in Georgetown.

[@kathy.7475]

I hope your great grandfather had a good life after his recuperation and marriage. He certainly deserved it after his service and sacrifice.

[@carchick7545]

My great grandfather David Boggs Freetly was wounded twice and fought at Gettysburg. His name is on the plaque. Its amazing they survived

[@patriciawagstaff6302]

As a retired RN BSN of 35 years at local hospitals in Grand Rapids ,Michigan . I really appreciate your history of Hattie' years as a nurse and her years of service and dedication to her calling as nurse. A calling that she took willingly and with great pride. Thank you., Patricia- Michigan

[@sandrahossman2089]

I agree with you, I spent 36 years as a critical care RN . I couldn't have said it better. She is one of many nurses and doctors heros.

[@jerushamaxwell281]

I think it must have been a great comfort to the wounded soldiers to find themselves under the care of women, and in particular, such caring nurses as Hattie Dada.

[@maudey53]

As one of a large staff of RNs in a level one trauma center, in a large city, we often wondered how our efforts ended and the patients progressed. We would take turns going upstairs to the post trauma units, to check on our charges. Sometimes the news was not surprisingly sad, because of the degree of injuries sustained, but occasionally we were told of a full discharge to home. What a joy those times were, sometimes months later! I totally understand this women's sentiments. Thank you for this fascinating window into the past. We nurses still feel the same!

[@deniseheupel8814]

Fascinating account! Thank you for sharing. I intend to find her writings. I worked in medical for 20 years and from that, I can only imagine how bad the stench of rotting flesh of so many wounded and dead would be. Once you've smelled necrotic tissue, you never forget the smell. It must have been absolutely overwhelming.

[@LuvBorderCollies]

I grew up on a working grain & livestock farm which was useful for my later career in police work then 14 yrs in CSI. Modern people are so insulated from the reality of death they can't begin to imagine what its like. When I think back on the "old days" with no running water, no air conditioning, no electricity for fans or equipment, poor communications and on and on. I often flip right over to my great great grandparents who homesteaded Dakota Territory in 1870. They faced the same hardships but without the war part. They lost at least 4 children that I know of to disease, 3 of them little girls in 6 days. When I think my modern life has problems, I think of them persevering through unimaginable trials. That humbles me and reminds me that I far WAY short of their character, toughness and unshakable faith in God.

[@terri2494]

@@LuvBorderCollies I really wish kids today were taught more of these stories, at school and also at home. So many of them are clueless as to what a blessing it is to live here at this time, as crazy as it is right now. I’m similar to you in that sometimes, when I’m lamenting the fact that my life in general has not gone the way I wanted it to, I imagine the Lord is shaking his head and thinking, “There’s a widow in Afghanistan who would gladly trade places with you.”

[@nicecatholicgrl]

I'm a retired due to a car wreck I was in 10 years ago ..anyhow it amazes me to hear the conditions they worked under ..things they didn't have to save their men had to be heart breaking .since so many were so young death is always a hard finality for any nurse to deal with ..so to hear of a happy ending of a patient writing a reply is like hearing angels sing!

Great first hand account of Gettysburg after the battle. Thank you!

[@FuzzyWuzzy75]

The last time I was in Gettysburg was Halloween night 1993. I was a teenager at the time, a bit of a hooligan in those days who liked his strong drink and other party favors. I had actually just got kicked out of high school, how I wound up in Gettysburg (far from my North Carolina home) at that time, I can't even recall. But I met a local character who was young and quite knowledgeable about the history there and we decided to party with some "contraband" in the pitch black dark (while it was raining) on a well known part of the battlefield. I am somewhat of a superstitious person believing somewhat in the paranormal, I didn't see anything odd concern in that regard, but had it not been for our "party favors" I would not have been there and would have been far more apprehensive about being on that hallowed ground on Halloween night. But we had a good time! I learned a lot about the battle from the perspective of a local who was made privy to some stories I reckon people not born and raised in Gettysburg would be so familiar with. It was an interesting conversation, to say the least. Of course, Gettysburg is a college town. We tend to get so wrapped up in the history of the battle that we who have never been there or who are not from there tend to forget that. I was struck by being in place made so unusual by its place in history, but yet how it seems the locals (and college students) seem to like to live their lives as if it were just any other college town as best they can. Of course, Gettysburg has also become such a tourist designation. Speaking of the paranormal, I understand that (in modern times at least) as many come to Gettysburg to partake in paranormal investigations as they come for study of the history there. Regardless of what actually brings people to visit Gettysburg, it has become quite the tourist designation with lots of pleasant amenities that we associate with not only tourism but also college towns in general. There are many good choices in restaurants and watering holes in Gettysburg. It is a fun place despite its grim history oddly. I was going to ask how long it took, after the battle, for Gettysburg to get back to a semblance of normalcy after the battle? But the more I think of things, the more one can say that battle forever changed Gettysburg in ways that are still being felt today. Gettysburg is an amazing little town.

[@jamesrobiscoe1174]

I enjoyed your account of your visit to this hallowed ground. The blood and spirits soaked into the earth now go deep, but I think they will always remain for those who want to tune in to what they have to say.

[@deniseheupel8814]

I'm curious to hear if you witnessed anything unusual or had a Feeling of anything? My family went to Custer's Last Stand battlefield when I was young and I'll never forget the Feeling of that place. I believe the Earth holds memories, some so intense we are able to still Feel them.

[@deniseheupel8814]

@@jamesrobiscoe1174 I agree.

[@FuzzyWuzzy75]

@deniseheupel8814 I did not see or experience anything unusual at Gettysburg the couple of times I have been there but would not be to quick to dismiss the claims of others who claim they have had experiences there or elsewhere. I have been to most of the major and well-known several of the lesser known Civil War battlefields. Granted, it has been at least 25 years since I have been to any of them, but Shiloh and Antietam were probably my two favorites, and the reason is because it seemed like little had changed in those areas around the battlefields. Sure, there were statues and memorials and plaques and paved roads and telephone lines and visitor's centers, but these places still had that look and feel like one could imagine from the times of the battles. My least favorite battlefield was Franklin, near Nashville. Much of the area where the worst fighting took place was not preserved at all and had been heavily developed. You see fast food restaurants and gas stations where major parts of that battle took place, which is appalling to me. But I agree with you. Even in a place like Franklin, you get the sense that there is some what of a trapped residual energy there. I always found myself astounded at how some of these less disturbed places felt (to me at least) so calm and peaceful, especially if you know anything about the history at these places. It felt kind of pleasant and eerie at the same time. I have never seen a ghost at any of these places or heard strange sounds either, thankfully. I don't want to either. But the place that really sticks out in my mind was along the Sunken Road at Antietam. When I walked the Sunken Road, I was all alone, and it was quiet, except for birds chirping all around. I got that peaceful yet eerie feeling, and even though I was all alone, I did not feel as if I was all alone.

[@deniseheupel8814]

@@FuzzyWuzzy75 so sad to hear about Franklin. I live near Deadwood, where the recent influx of transplants has massive building happening all over the Black Hills, but I'm particularly upset about the clearing of trees and development around the Preacher Smith mur der site.

My next research is to see what records may be of her service

[@jamesmurphy9346]

My Father was born in 1909. He told me there was a Civil War vet living in the small town of Midland, Md. and he would go talk to him. Talking about wounded. Small town called Clarysville below Frostburg, Md. the Federals set up a Hospital. I saw a picture once of a Ocean of White tents. There was a Doctor there that would not use netting to keep Fly's of the Soliders wounds. Seems the Fly's larvae would eat the Gangrene and save a Limb from amputation. The Doctors superiors forced the use of netting causing Amputation rates to climb again. Enjoy your information and have been to Gettysburg a few times. Thank you.

I had family who fought at Gettysburg. One was killed, the other survived. That war should have never been fought. Lincoln might have protected his imagined "union" but the US suffered too many lost on both sides and for nothing. Economically and spiritually the North and the South would have been just fine had the secession been peacefully concluded.

[@brianniegemann4788]

I'm curious about your remark, "Lincoln's imagined Union". What does that mean? In my view, the Civil War was essentially a clash between two competing economic systems; one based on agriculture and slavery, the other based on free labor and industry. At the time, most of the world was run under some sort of slavery: peonage, serfdom, indentured servitude and just plain poor, ignorant peasants under the thumb of some local aristocrat. Morality of slavery aside; if the south had peacefully seceded, America would have become two countries; one a backward, feudalistic slave nation, the other a modern industrial democracy. In which case, North America would have been much less prepared to face Hitler or the USSR. But a peaceful division of a country is rarely possible. The first thing the Confederates did upon seceding was to sieze all the military and naval posts they could. Because they knew there would be war, and they couldn't win it with the arms they had. Indeed, the war has started years earlier in Missouri, with John Brown's rebellion and the terrorist attacks on northerners by southern guerillas. So you can argue that John Brown started the war, or that the south started it by trying to take over Missouri. But either way, it didn't start peacefully and was doomed to end in blood. Thanks for listening. I would be interested to hear your thoughts on the Union and the alternate history following a peaceful secession.

[@58landman]

@@brianniegemann4788 ​ I don’t disagree with you on the points you made. All are well stated and we might argue the fine points for fun but I don’t want to be a Devil’s Advocate, even for fun. Prior to the Civil War the Southern States were viewed by Washington as profit center colonies that existed for the benefit of the federal government. The South had much to export and its trade was managed by Washington who acted as a middle man for Southern products with European nations, precluding the South from the profits that it could have made with independent trade. The South wanted to trade with Europe without Washington’s interference and it was perfectly willing to secede from a Union that did not support it, even if that meant war. Slavery, unfortunately, was how the ag products of the South were planted and brought to market and the practice would have ended shortly after the Second Industrial Revolution. Regarding a peaceful secession, Lincoln wasn’t going to have that and he gave the orders to run the blockade of Charleston harbor even though negotiations for a peaceful surrender of that Fort had been ongoing for several days. “PTSD" Beauregard could not contain himself. But back to my comment, Lincoln never had a Union with the South and after his death, continuing through that lie called Reconstruction and likely all the way to WWII there was no real unity. I have always realized what I consider God’s Wisdom in keeping the US from dividing, peacefully or otherwise, into two or more separate nations. On paper it looks appealing particularly for the idea of decentralization of Federal power but WWII would have ended quite differently had a centralized US Fed government not existed. The US was and wanted to remain neutral in the events occuring in Europe but Roosevelt was assisting the British with war equipment. The Japanese and its Axis relations, more than any other thing at the time, made the US realize there was no way it could remain neutral and stay out of the conflict.

Nothing in the USA gov. Is peacefully accomplished. We are the warrior nation. Sad sad

[@Redbird_Girl2010]

@brianniegemann4788 It was not just a clash between two competing economic systems. Slavery was on its way out due to industrialization. In fact, the industrialization of the South would have happened much faster without the war. Keeping slaves was expensive and machinery increased production. Much of the war had to do with states' rights. Lincoln wanted a strong federal government and the South did not. Look at all the issues we now have with an out of control federal government. States need to take back what they lost before we lose the entire country. By the way, the US has never faced the USSR. It died a slow death due to communist based economic principles in 1990.

[@58landman]

@@Redbird_Girl2010 It sounds like I wrote that but I don't remember doing so. In any event, the idea of the several States taking back anything from our domineering fed is like trying to find the door to shut after the barn and the door has been destroyed.

Many US Soldiers really believe they are doing the lords work "for freedom". I'm just saying if we all believed this is all we get, war would be much harder to justify. We speak up about these fairytales and are labeled: negative, condescending, and hateful. Some old bibles use 616 vs 666 and I know people terrified by this number. Should we allow people to be scammed by this crap forever? @@dawncheshire-gibson1859

Looks interesting, but the voice is like nails on a blackboard .... can't do it

Do something useful and positive like the gentleman who went to the effort to develop this video and upload. I hear it just fine and I've got hearing impairment that makes certain sounds cringy. But my first instinct is NOT jump on the comments and badmouth the guy. You're not overflowing in worthy accomplishments yourself, so who are you to criticsize a productive, positive working person?? Like the other guy in the comment...get over yourself.
