Gettysburg is the place where 165,000 soldiers met to fight for their beliefs. It is the place where Abraham Lincoln helped
mend a torn nation with his Gettysburg Address, and the place where millions have stood to reflect on the importance of
the events that occurred here and how those events shaped our nation.
