Barlow and Gordon Meet Again

Barlow and Gordon Meet Again

At the Battle of Gettysburg on July 1, 1863, Confederate Gen. John Gordon's brigade smashed into the Union XI Corps on Barlow's Knoll. There, he aided the wounded opposing division commander Francis Barlow. This incident led to a story (depicted here) about the two officers meeting later in Washington, D.C., unaware that Barlow had survived the battle. The story was told by Barlow and by Gordon and was published in newspapers and in Gordon's book. Directed by Robert Child.
