That is a nice one too! After Gettysburg, my second fav is Hastings in the UK. It is not as preserved (much older), but it is all still here up on Senlac Hill….you can trace what we call English today to that spot. Before, it was a low German…after the Normans came in, what we call English today was born. Once Harold took an arrow in the eye, Anglo-Saxon England changed forever.

A place I’d like to go is Isandlwana, in South Africa. It’s the setting that the movie Zulu references. Classic battle full of lessons of what not to do when you’re in a fight.
Just a fantasy though. I’ll never get there.
