While he did have his men dig works, to the dismay of Geary, the actual person who started the whole process was Rufes Dawes of the 6th Wisconsin. When his men took their position on the more northern side of Culp's Hill, he had his men dig in and were lucky enough to have their wagontrain close enough for them to procure digging tools. After his regiment was done the 7th Indiana also began this process, and the 12th Corps, which fell in line to the right of the 7th, then too followed suit.

David Ireland and his 137th NYVI have once again been left in the dust, so to speak. The 137th, holding the far right of the Union line, performed and did as much, if not more, than the 20th Maine on the far right, including bayonet charges, and were the real saviors of the Union line.
