The monument to Brigadier General John Geary stands on Culp's Hill at Gettysburg. The men of Geary's division dug in and created formidable breastworks on the hill that were soon to be tested. After being sent to a different part of the field, his men had to fight their way back to their works after mistakenly being marched off the battlefield, then ordered to their original position.
