rjweb Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 Glad it went good for you, I was there with the Boy Scouts, that must have been 100 years ago late 50,s. We went to see some big battle map in doors that you sat above and looked down as the war was happening with them explaining, great time, RJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim McDonald Posted August 28, 2017 Report Share Posted August 28, 2017 Spent a day there on the way to a Fox Chapel open house and it is a great place to visit. Did the museum first and bought a set of CDs to play in the car as you tour the battlefield and stop at the various battle sites. It is eerie to stand on some of the high ground and imagine how horrific that hot day in July must have been like for the thousands of young men down in the fields. Also spent some quiet time walking around in the cemetery that is located on the edge of town. A very reverent place. If you are ever anywhere close, take the time. We will be back someday.
