The spot is a farm field on the western approach to Gettysburg, where Union Gen. John Reynolds was shot from his horse on the morning of July 1, 1863, while directing troops into the fight with Confederate forces coming down the Chambersburg Pike. His death was one of the first major losses of the three-day battle, and it left the Union I Corps under the command of Abner Doubleday that afternoon. Photographs of the ground like this one show how open and unremarkable such fields looked once the fighting moved on, which makes the site's later memorial role easier to appreciate.
