Iron Brigade’s rise and costly valor at Gettysburg and beyond
The Iron Brigade under Gibbon and Meredith rose to field command from Antietam through Petersburg and Appomattox. Meredith led the unit at Gettysburg where heavy casualties reduced its strength, and the brigade’s bold defense west of the town shaped the Army of the Potomac’s positions at Culp’s Hill Cemetery Ridge and Little Round Top. The unit earned enduring fame for its heavy losses and fearless fighting, a testament to its standout role in the Civil War.
