#1 White Confederates made room for their Southern brothers

...in a large barn that I believe still stands today. Tentage was limited and crowded. Chow was shared as the Confederates made room for them at their tables.

#3 The summer heat of July 1913 did not keep the old Confederate and Union Veterans from attending the 50th anniversary

Why there must have been global warming way back then. Why I thought AlGore came up with that BS.

Talk about battles. Gettysburg must have been something to behold. Sacred ground for both sides as I see it.

#4 yes, a very good post. Having had the privelege of visiting Gettysburg several times I have been awed with the enormity of the battle and what it meant in shaping our history as a country.
