I drove all over Gettysburg and decided that this was the best tree that was near a monument.

Thanks. It's true that most visitors don't see this placement of guns or its significance.

Any guesses of where the picture of the soldiers of Heckman's Battery was taken? Certainly not at Gettysburg.

Here is a video of Heckman's Battery at Gettysburg. The viewer should be aware that some of the photos etc used in the video are of Battery H, 1st Ohio.
