August 10, 2024 – Session 10: Cavalry Operations During the Gettysburg Campaign

The cavalry branch of service is often overlooked by students of the Battle of Gettysburg aside from the July 1st role of Buford’s Cavalry division and the actions of a fellow named George Custer.  But the role of cavalry throughout the Gettysburg Campaign was a crucial one.  This session will look at all aspects of the cavalry of the Army of the Potomac and the Army of Northern Virginia in the summer of 1863.
