I have an ancestor who fought in the Devil’s Den. When I visited the battlefield my thoughts ran to how difficult it must have been to attack against troops entrenched in that rock pile.

Go, you 1st Texas! YYYYAAAAAAAEEEEEEEE!

I had a great great uncle, who fought on the Union side, during Pickett's Charge.

He was the only one who came home from his family.

Two died at The Battle of Wilderness (they fought against each other in that battle), another died at Andersonville.
