One battery of self-propelled 155mm field artillery support.

A few 100 dollar drones
What didnt kill them with explosive would have scared them into surrender.
Or 1 humvee decked out with a 50 cal and a few thousand rounds of ammo would have definitely sent a strong impression

Yeah. Let them see her, Al Green Michelle Obama and some of these thugs, show them what they're fighting for.They'd join Lee and march on Washington.

Same thing I was thinking. Years ago I walked the battlefield. Can’t imagine what Pickett thought he was going to accomplish.
Gettysburg was such an interesting battle and having seen the landscape makes it even more compelling. Had Lee taken the high ground, different story. I’ve wondered how different the battle would’ve gone had Jackson still been alive.

Feels like night vision would do the trick. As someone else said…a spotter with a radio would also be interesting.

That was me. Porter Alexander could have adjusted all that artillery fire and maybe actually hit something with it. Hard to shoot when you can't see.

I need one for home defense

Read Newt Gingrich's book....where Lee had an epiphany that he was fighting the wrong battle.

AK-47s. Lee could just take Washington.
