Dedicated to the Fallen

Taken: April 17, 2017
Caption: Dedicated to the Fallen
Additional Description: We honor those who remained in these woods long after the battle ended on May 7, 1864.
"Hundreds of graves on these battlefields are without any marks whatever to distinguish them, and so covered with foliage that the visitor will be unable to find the last resting place of those who have fallen."
