Chickamauga Battlefield




We went to Chattanooga 2-3 years ago and while we were there we decided to visit the Chickamauga Battlefield. I've always like to visit Civil War places but this one was extra special to me. However, I always come away sad when I think about all the lives that were lost.
There was a gun collection there but I don't recall how many guns there were but there was row after row like the picture above. I took the top picture because I worked and retired from Eli Lilly & Company and the founder of the company was in the Civil War.
