July 2, 1863: Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia conducts a disjointed attack against Meade’s entrenched Army of the Potomac. He succeeds in wrecking Sickles’ III Corps, which had foolishly taken a position in the Wheatfield and Peach Orchard forward of the main line, but does not break Meade’s lines. On Meade’s left flank, Hood’s division attempts to take the Little Round Top, but is finally driven off by Chamberlain’s 20th Maine, which, having run out of ammunition, conducts a bayonet charge. In the center, Anderson’s division reaches the crest of Cemetery Ridge, but a suicidal charge by Colvill’s 1st Minnesota buys time for reinforcements to drive Anderson off. Northwest of the main battle, newly-promoted Brigadier General George A. Custer’s cavalry division defeats Wade Hampton’s tired brigade at Hunterstown.
Silicon Valley et Hamas delenda sunt.

“Fix Bayonets!” Col. Joshua Chamberlain leads his 20th Maine into history at Little Round Top.
