Brock,
I saw the Medal of Honor story on your site. Confederate heroes have their own medal of honor
As
Maj. Breathed was an officer in Stuart's Horse Artillery & since I a
reenact in a battery named for Stuart's Horse Artillery, one of
Breathed's descendants invited us to the ceremony.
We marched through Hancock, provided an Honor Guard and fired canon after the ceremony. I have attached some pictures.
The
canon on the right in the picture was an actual original federal tube
that was captured and used by Stuart's Horse Artillery.
Since
I had at least seven ancestors in SHA, it was an honor to fire that
gun. In the picture, I am in the #3 position just to the right of the
obelisk.
I thought you might enjoy!
Shawn
Gosh, gee whillikers, those are really NICE photographs!
