The clash of the Union and Confederate Armies at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania marked the last offensive of the Army of Northern Virginia during the Civil War.  During those days in July 1863, New York regiments waited to meet their Southerner adversaries and represented one quarter of the entire Union Army at the battle.  6,700 New Yorkers became casualties (killed, wounded, or missing) and many were buried in the National Soldier’s Cemetery in Gettysburg dedicated by President Lincoln in November 1863.  Please join historian Dr. Jennifer Speelman to discuss the three-day battle, the contribution of these New York regiments, and the state’s commemoration of war dead.     

Dr. Jennifer Speelman is an Associate Professor of History at the United States Merchant Marine Academy, Kings Point.  She received her B.A. in English from the Pennsylvania State University, State College, PA and her M.A. and Ph.D. in History from  Temple University, Philadelphia, PA.  Dr. Speelman took over the KP Gettysburg Staff Ride program in Oct. 2019 and takes Midshipmen to the Battlefield to gain an appreciation of how historical themes can teach leadership.  She has attended Gettysburg College’s Civil War Institute and taught as a Visiting Professor at the United States Army War College, Carlisle PA. She and her family have called Great Neck home since 2011.
