I was watch the movie Gettysburg and was seeing Pickett charge. I noticed that General Longstreet pointed out how the attacking soldiers would bunch up at the fence in the field. They did bunch up during the attack.
I am wondering why the Confederate artillery did not shell the fence so that sections would have been removed so that the infantry had one less challenge during Pickett's charge?
