Some of the fiercest fighting of the three-day Battle of Gettysburg happened on July 1. The Iron Brigade, with 1,883 soldiers lost 1,153 in killed, wounded, or missing. And they weren't the only ones to sustain such loss.  Licensed Battlefield Guides Tracy Baer and Rich Kohr join us on Oak Hill for this 158th Anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg Special.   Please support the show by supporting this episode's sponsor, TR Historical.
