Joshua Chamberlain

Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain (Brewer (Maine), 8 september 1828 – Portland (Maine), 24 februari 1914) was een Amerikaans militair die zich als vrijwilliger aanmeldde bij het leger aan het begin van de Amerikaanse Burgeroorlog en uiteindelijk de rang van brigadegeneraal behaalde. Chamberlain maakte deel uit van het 20th Maine Regiment in het Army of the Potomac waar hij bij de Slag bij Fredericksburg vocht. Tijdens de Slag bij Gettysburg was Chamberlain met zijn regiment van belang bij de verdediging van Little Round Top aan de linkerflank van de Uniefrontlijn. Ondanks groot gebrek aan munitie sloeg hij een aanval van de Geconfedereerde troepen onder leiding van William C. Oates af en zijn manschappen maakten vele vijanden krijgsgevangen.
