I am one who is not an expert on Gettysburg. It was the first CW battlefield I visited (took one of those personal tours with a guide driving our auto) and I've been back a couple of times since. I still don't understand how the various parts of the battle fit together and last night's TV version didn't help me a bit. In fact, its disjointed presentation of the battle is much like my own understanding. Perhaps that's just the way it was? It seems to me that Lee's dash up into PA was to gather supplies and he came back with a lot. In that regard it was successful, yet I don't recall any mention of gathering supplies in last night's presentation. How many reenacting units did they use in the film?
