Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: March 29, 2008
Caption: Fourth United States Infantry Under Fire
Additional Description: Looking west from the tablet location. When the 4th U.S. reached the farm lane (which ran north to become the Sunken Road), it came under fire from Confederate artillery positioned on the high ground near the present day National Cemetery. The cemetery's walls are on the distant center of this photo. Additional artillery positioned on the high ground to the north of the Pike (right of photo) also engaged the regulars. This placed the regiment in a cross fire.
