LBG Britt Isenberg’s 25 June 2024 “Discovering the Enemy” – Brig Gen John Buford’s Division at Gettysburg”

There is much left to be said about General John Buford’s Division at Gettysburg even with the large amounts of published material focusing on his command. This tour will challenge some of the broad assertions that have been made about his division’s role over the years, but more importantly focus on Buford’s operational objectives, the division’s intelligence gathering, and the realities of their tactical deployment that ultimately took them into battle on July 1, 1863. “Boots and saddles!”
