More Unknowns


Close to Lee's House in Arlington National Cemetery lies a lesser known memorial to America's unknown war dead. This monument was erected to honor those unknown soldiers whose bodies were gathered after the Battle of Bull Run. They numbered 2,111 dead. I can't make out what it says completely, not in the pictures and not when I was there in person, but here's a link to a couple of pictures that allow you to read what it says.
