The fight in the Wheatfield is heating up (again!) as both sides take casualties...
Some of Wofford's men reform after passing through the Rose Farm, while more Confederate troops are coming up...
Confederate artillery positions itself at the Emmittsburg/Wheatfield Road intersection. Barksdale's 21 Miss loses men and becomes Shaken (yellow cap)...
Wilcox's Brigade is extending the Rebel battleline to the north, as the Federals at the Klingle Farm, (top center) attempt to halt the assault...
As Blue and Grey exchange fire near the Rodger's Farm, yet another Confederate Brigade (Wright) further extends their line...
The Federals of Carr's Brigade, win their fight with the Rebs at the northern edge of the Wheatfield (upper right). Further to the west, fire is exchanged with newly arrived Federals...
As the 21 Miss now is routing (red cap), new Federal troops exchange fire with the rest of Barksdale's men as losses mount for both...
The Union troops north of the Wentz Farm are holding...barely, as they are taking heavy casualties. he two Federal Batteries are beginning to worry as their infantry support seems to be melting away (their ineffective fire despite good ranges may explain some of that) ...
More to come...
