Q: Which CSA General led the left-flank charge against Cemetery Ridge, lost 50% of his men, and was last to leave the field?

Didn't trimble get captured? Would that count as last to leave the battlefield? So many questions, so little time and knowledge. :o

I'm pretty sure he was wounded but I didn't think he was captured. If I wasn't so lazy I'd pull a book off the shelf and check.

Kemper.

Kemper was on the right with Picketts Division. Must have been one of the brigade or regimental commanders with Pettigrew or Trimble.

Todays posts got zapped, so here's the answer again...

Brig. Gen. James Henry Lane

If I hadn't been so lazy I would have started guessing brigade commanders.
