On July 2, 1863, the First Minnesota Volunteer Infantry Regiment made an overwhelming sacrifice to protect the Union line at the Battle of Gettysburg. With a daring charge, 262 Minnesotans thwarted a potential breakthrough by Confederate troops. Only 47 troops would emerge unscathed from the charge. We walk the very ground so many brave men sacrificed themselves for the greater good. These Union saviors are honored with three monuments at Gettysburg National Military Park.
