Dedication

After the Battle

The officer standing in the center of this group of Union soldiers after the battle of Antietam is Lt. Alonzo Cushing, who died less than a year after this group portrait while fighting in Gettysburg during Pickett’s Charge.

Sitting at left is Evan Thomas, who was killed in ambush by the Modoc Indians a decade later in California.

As they say, you must suffer to be beautiful.
