Thanks for posting that Stan. It's easy at times to get caught up in the unit history or a particular battle or issue we sometimes forget for each and every soldier, Confederate and Union, there was a story. They had a family. They were real people. For those of us here in the South who are not in high school, we remember when there were still reminders of the family connection and the community loss. We can only hope, down the road, there will still be something left to remind people of an event so powerful, it broke apart a nation and there are lessons to be learned from it.
