Gettysburg

"The flags flutter and snap - the sunlight flashes from the officers' swords - low words of command are heard - and thus in perfect order, this gallant array of gallant men marches straight down into the valley of Death!"

~ Pvt. Randolph Shotwell, C.S.A.
    8th Virginia Infantry

We spent the day touring the Civil War battlefield at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.  Such a staggering loss of life over a bloody three day period in the summer of 1863.  You can still feel such sadness and atmosphere there.
