Davis
Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: June 28, 2008
Caption: Davis' Brigade in the July 3 Assault
Additional Description: Looking east from Confederate Avenue toward Cemetery Ridge. The Brigade stepped out with Brockenbrough's Brigade on their left. When Brockenbrough's men were surprised by flanking fire from the 8th Ohio Infantry, and fell back, Davis' Brigade became the left flank of the Confederate assault. However, contrary to what is written on the tablet, Davis' Brigade met with the same flanking fire from the Ohio troops, and was also turned.
