In  addition, every time I am there, some one always walks up to that  small
monument.. And I share your thoughts on it..  




I've been pleased that my thoughts expressed in that article have been  
echoed in at least a few books since published about Gettysburg and the PPT  
Charge.  J Earl Hess in his books about NC troops and about the Charge did  not 
accept my conclusions, of course, but I was at least pleased that he devoted  
inordinately long footnotes in an effort to dispute my conclusions (I am of  
course a bit prejudiced, but I think Hess failed to make his case -- and he  played 
a little loose with some of the facts in his failed effort)
