All are welcome! Participants are encouraged to attend the Virtual Meet-Up, Monday, December 4 prior to the tour (please register separately). Our guide is Bill Elliott, Assistant Director for Advising, Career and Transfer Services at Harford Community College in Bel Air, Maryland, and MACCA member. Bill has studied the battle since his first visit to the field at the age of five and has led educational, business and military groups in numerous tours and discussions relating to Civil War history, immigrant soldiers in the Civil War, leadership strategy and its relevance today. Bill spent many years as a living historian in the 69th Pennsylvania Infantry reenactment group, proudly portraying a soldier of the regiment in honor of his 3rd great grandfather who served in the 69th and was wounded and captured at Gettysburg, later dying in Andersonville Prison Camp in Georgia. Bill also has served as a Camp Commander and currently serves as the Department of the Chesapeake Historian in the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War.
