Playing around this morning with the two new Wm Britian advancing Iron Brigade figures (#31058 & 31059) I received yesterday. Also featured in these photos are the officer and two members of the 2nd Wisconsin from WB #31051 "Chosen Ground #1", the NCO from WB #17833, and WB #31007 "Iron Brigade Charging (port arms)". The diorama base and Gettysburg backdrop were acquired from Hudson & Allen (Ken & Ericka Osen).

FORWARD WISCONSIN!
Gettysburg, PA
July 1, 1863
Shouting the state motto, "Forward Wisconsin!", 29 year old Captain John R. Spoerri (Milwaukee), leads Company K of the 2nd Wisconsin towards McPhearson's Woods and the sound of battle. Little does he know that before this day is over, he will be counted among the wounded.
