The Battle of Fredericksburg (Part 5: 20th Maine)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Fredericksburg What more do you want me to say? The video doesn't display the parts of the battle taking place south of Fredericksburg... and I haven't studied the battle thoroughly enough to give you a play-by-play analysis of the entire thing. In this scene it's the 20th Maine's turn to be exploited by Burnside's ineptitude in crossing the Rappahannock early and cutting Lee's army in two.
