It also saw the fi rst signifi cant loss of confi dence in the vaunted Confederate Cavalry. Th is paper will examine three signifi cant cavalry events within the Gettysburg Campaign in order to show the reader the Union Cavalry’s development as an outstanding fi ghting force and the fi rst inklings of selfdoubt within the Confederate high command with regards to its cavalry arm of the service. Th e engagements at Brandy Station and Upperville saw the innovation of new tactics as well as a resistance on the part of Stuart to accept and respond to this new threat. More importantly, Union cavalrymen gained the selfconfi dence in their own abilities during these engagements. Union Gen. John Buford’s defense of key terrain on July 1 was signifi cant for it showed another versatile use of cavalry and aff ected the outcome of the entire campaign, a fi rst for the Union Cavalry. Th e Confederacy’s lack of intelligence about Buford was also key on this day due in large part to Stuart’s less than stellar raid into Hanover. Th ough Lee never actually blamed Stuart for the loss at Gettysburg, Lee did admit that better intelligence could have been available had more Confederate cavalry been with him during the fi rst two days of the engagement.","PeriodicalId":268075,"journal":{"name":"Gettysburg Magazine","volume":"106 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128078907","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Robert Rodes’s troops were on the move from Heidlersburg toward the nearby town of Gettysburg. Th at division formed part of Lt. Gen. Richard S. Ewell’s newly reorganized Second Corps, which also included the troops commanded by Maj. Gens. Jubal A. Early and Edward “Old Allegheny” Johnson. Rodes had emerged at Chancellorsville as one of the biggest heroes in Robert E. Lee’s army, earning him promotion as permanent head of the division. His command included the brigades led by Brig. Gens. Dodson Ramseur, Alfred Iverson, George Doles, Junius Daniel, and Col. Edward O’Neal. Early’s troops trailed closely behind Rodes’s division, while Johnson’s troops remained on the western side of South Mountain near Scotland village. Th e action around Gettysburg began earlier that day, when Henry Heth’s division from Ambrose Powell Hill’s Th ird Corps encountered some enemy troops just northwest of town. Th ose men were fi rst thought to be nothing more than a small militia force. Th ey instead were veteran troopers from Brig. Gen. John Buford’s division, part of the Army of the Potomac. Using delaying tactics, Buford’s dismounted cavalrymen slowed down Heth’s advance long enough for the infantry from the Federal First Corps to arrive on the fi eld. Within a short time, the men from Henry Heth’s and Dorsey Pender’s divisions were engaged in a fi erce and growing battle along both sides of the turnpike leading into town from Chambersburg.1","PeriodicalId":268075,"journal":{"name":"Gettysburg Magazine","volume":"97 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132374194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
