LBG Lewis Trott is joined by LBG Kevin Bryant in this episode, which is Kevin's first one on Addressing Gettysburg.
One brigade that doesn't get much attention when discussing the Battle of Gettysburg is that of Brigadier General Edward Perry. Perry wasn't here, however. He was sick with typhoid fever. Colonel Lang commanded the briagde in Perry's absence. Lang was a graduate of the Georgia Military Institute.
Perry's (Lang's) small brigade was comprised of all the Florida regiments which served with the Army of Northern Virginia at the time. It took part in the assauts of both July 2nd and 3rd advancing from the woods on Seminary Ridge and past Emmitsburg Road. Both times they were turned back by Union forces.
