This should be an easy one to find ladies and gentlemen.
Who was the highest ranking officer killed at Gettysburg?
What was his rank?
***Please be specific with your answer***
The first person will be awarded 25 milcreds.
Was it Major General William D Pinder? I don't know much about these times, but wasn't Custer a part of this battle?
Major General John F. Reynolds, Union Army?
I think you are right, ZOFO, I think it was Reynolds who was killed early in the battle. Our illustrious moderator will shortly reward you. (unless we are both wrong)
Custer was a young officer on somebodies staff. An interesting story about him tells about the pompous staff officers riding to the bank of a river and trying to out military the other in determining the depth of the river, Custer simply spurs his horse into the middle, turns and says, "It's this deep, General."
