But Not All Guns were at Gettysburg
Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: August 16, 2008
Caption: But Not All Guns were at Gettysburg
Additional Description: The plaque on the "First Shot" Gun may either be incorrect or miss-leading. At least one of the guns at the Buford Statue base was produced after the battle - in 1864. This may be a piece which was issued to the battery later in the war, or simply an inadvertent substitution.
