picTo give you some idea of the number of soldiers buried here just from the Battle of Gettysburg, this is maybe 1/3 of the lumarnies.https://alsowards.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/20.jpg20Keep in mind that this is just a small percentage of those killed during the battle as most of the dead were shipped home. It is always a forceful reminder that freedom isn't free.https://alsowards.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/19.jpg19https://alsowards.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/18.jpg18This year I was assigned to work on one of the three "unknown" sections. There are hundreds of unknowns buried here as they didn't have dog tags. The assumption was because you served with men you grew up with they'd be able to identifiy you but that was often not the case.https://alsowards.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/17.jpg17For the last few years at the end of the day I've been able to help set up & light the lumanaries in the cemetery. Pictures don't do it justice but it is a very powerful, moving sight.https://alsowards.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/16.jpg16I love this statue! It always reminds me of the stories I've read, or been told, of how you keep fighting even though you're exhausted because you don't want to let the "brother" fighting beside you down.https://alsowards.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/15.jpg15A few of the southern flags seen throughout the parade.https://alsowards.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/14.jpg14But this bag pipest's costume needed to be seen in color.
