The difficulty in imposing the orderliness of a concept like the echelon on Longstreet’s flank assault—and it has been done routinely since the publication of Porter Alexander’s memoirs in 1907 and
Jesse Bowman Young’s
The Battle of Gettysburg
in 1913—is that no written orders for the attack have survived, and so it is difficult to say that Lee or Longstreet were planning anything so deliberate and thought out. Even Porter Alexander, who would be responsible for Longstreet’s artillery, could not “remember hearing of any conference or discussions among our generals at this time as to the best formations & tactics in making our attacks, & our method on this occasion struck me as peculiar even then.”
Ambrose Powell Hill was actually the only officer to use the term
echelon
in his official report, and even then he seems to have been referring only to the three brigades of his own corps which participated. Longstreet, writing in the
Philadelphia Weekly Times
in 1876, spoke about “the brigades of Wilcox, Perry, Wright, Posey and Mahone moving
en echelon
,” but it is not clear from the context whether Longstreet meant just these brigades from Hill’s corps, or a larger movement. Other officers—
Jerome Robertson, Cadmus Wilcox,
David Lang—all believed that their brigades were supposed to go in together, with the movement of the brigade on the right being the signal to its companion to the left to begin moving as well. See Young,
