Make it, Break it

One of the deadliest battles of the Civil War took place in 1863 in the tiny Pennsylvania town of Gettysburg. Union soldiers, low on ammunition, were losing the fight, nearly capitulating to the advancing Confederate army. Then, as they used up the last of their gunpowder, a ghostly George Washington on a white stallion appeared before them, commanding them to continue and win a battle that ultimately turned the tide of the war. That’s the way the legend tells it, anyway, and to this day, the people who live in and around Gettysburg maintain that George Washington’s ghost rides regally across that same battlefield every summer.
