Maybe you could give a more exact URL for the page.  I went to what you posted and got info about a cemetery tour here:

The link in yr last post shows as broken.  The error page recommends another link to try and when I click on that it goes to that cemetery page again.  I give up.

I don't know if this is actually what Leesecw is directing us to; but open the site that Cannonmn posted, then in the right corner click on "Battlefield Guides", and on this page scroll down, and click on "Gettysburg Artillery with George Newton."

RIP John. While on vacation July 4th 2013 in northern Wisconsin, he was ATVing with family and pulled ahead of everyone and took off at break-neck speed without a helmet. He lost control.....hit a tree....and the tree won.  He died instantly.

The one thing that you can almost always rely on research leading to, is more research.

Thanks Boom, you have more patience than I do for sure.

When I got to the page you mention, the address in the browser window showed this:

http://www.gettysburgdaily.com/?page_id=2516

If it isn't one of those nasty links that expires after a few minutes, it should work for everyone.

The guy in the picture has a comb-over to rival Donald Trump's.

He sure does; these vids make it clear that the wind is a comb-over's natural enemy.
