Could someone please explain to me what happened to the 22nd
Va. Inf. Batt. during Picketts charge. I am aware that the 22nd was
small and were hit in the flank as they approached the
Emmittsburg road, but the details of the 22nd Va. Inf. Batt. are few.
Was Brokenbrough's leadership the problem? Was the 22nd not up
to the task? Had they not fallen back, when they did, could the
charge have turned out differently. What happened to the 22nd Va.
Inf. Batt. and Brokenbrough after the battle.
Thanks,
