Caption: Wheel of the 19th Massachusetts
Additional Description: Looking north on Hancock Avenue toward the Copse of Trees. The 19th Massachusetts Monument is out of frame to the right. The regiment wheeled out across the ground here and faced the Copse of Trees, falling on the flank of Armistead's Confederates who had penetrated the Angle. A metal marker for the 19th Massachusetts stands just in front of the Copse of Trees, seen just left of the High Water Mark memorial.
