Hancock was a professional soldier, Chamberlain I believe was a teacher. All of Hancock's 1st day achievements could have been undone if the left flank had caved. Hancock indeed saw the ground & held it.Only after the Cav had initially began holding it.
I am not trying to take anything away from Hancock, its just that Chamberlain saved the battle at Little Round Top.
I am breaking 5 or so years of silence to begin the "Chamberlain was the true hero of Gettysburg" discussion. >(no, not because I saw the Ted Turner movie)> Flame away!
