Major General John F. Reynolds, commander of the Union First Corps, was killed near this spot on the morning of July 1, 1863, when the battle opened west of the town of Gettysburg. His death early in the fighting left the Union forces without one of their most trusted field commanders just as Confederate troops pressed into the area. Photographs of the battlefield like this one, taken in the years after the fighting, helped Americans see for the first time the open ground where the campaign's first major clash began.
