Gettysburg New Year’s Celebration

As we bid farewell to 2023, Gettysburg's Lincoln Square will undergo an exciting transformation into a brightly colored, lively dance venue, reflecting a departure from the traditional way this historic town celebrates the arrival of the new year.

A new tradition was started in 2022, when the town celebrated the inaugural “Let’s Raise Abe’s Hat” along with ringing in the new year with fireworks. This year, Gettysburg Pride and Gettysburg Alive have elected to turn the square into a dance party rather than continuing with the fireworks display from years past.

Feeding Washington’s Army: Surviving the Valley Forge Winter of 1778

Supply and logistics are an integral component of military operations, which influences every aspect of military planning, operational art, and strategy. Among the many challenges faced by the fledgling Continental Army was establishing secure sources of supplies. That challenge came on top of developing effective and efficient lines of communication, creating functional and reliable transportation systems, finding reliable and secure logistical bases, and successfully managing what was often an ad-hoc and improvised supply and logistical system.

In his most recent book “Feeding Washington's Army: Surviving the Valley Forge Winter of 1778”, U.S. Army War College professor Dr. Ricardo Herrera outlines how ... Read This Story

Although he took command of the Army of the Potomac only three days before the first shots were fired at Gettysburg, Union General George G.

In this lecture, historian Kent Masterson Brown draws on an expansive archive to reappraise Meade's leadership during the Battle of Gettysburg. Using Meade's published and unpublished papers alongside diaries, letters, and memoirs of fellow officers and enlisted men, Brown highlights how Meade's rapid advance of the army to Gettysburg ...
