General Armistead's Death at the Spangler Farm | History Traveler Episode 145

Episode 19 of the Gettysburg series.

The Battle of Gettysburg has a ripple effect that impacted the nation as a whole and the people of Gettysburg in particular. In this episode, we're going to a farm that was turned completely upside down as it was transformed into a field hospital for the wounded and a graveyard for the dead. It was also where General Lewis Armistead was brought after the failure of Pickett's Charge and where he spent his final moments here on this Earth.

(Note: All drone flights were performed by a Part 107 licensed drone pilot outside of the boundaries of the national military park.)
