Re: 15th Georgia Infantry Regiment at Gettysburg

(moved from Texas in the CW Message Board)

Your question should be properly submitted on the Georgia message board instead of this Texas board. However to answer your question, The 15th GA was not involved in Pickett's Charge. Pickett's Charge was executed by Pickett's division of Longstreet's 1st Corps plus 2 divisons from A.P. Hill's 3rd Corps. The 15th GA of Benning's Brigade, of Hood's division, had fought a very tough fight in the Devil's Den on July 2nd and was still recovering when Pickett made his advance on July 3rd. On July 3rd the 15th GA was involved in maintaining the Army of Northern Virginia's right flank.
