We remember 1863 or another anniversary of The Battle of Gettysburg.
It was a horrific and brutal 3-day battle. At the end, over 50,000 men died on that Pennsylvania field.
Today, we remember the valor on both sides.
Professor Allen Guelzo has a nice column over at The Wall Street Journal about Gettysburg and what it meant to his grandfather:
"The Battle of Gettysburg ended 150 years ago. But the democratic principle it was fought for still requires defending. And in the long view, its best defense may be the 272 words Lincoln uttered at Gettysburg. My great-grandfather seems to have thought so, and so do I."Yes, I agree with Professor Guelzo's great grandfather. You never stop defending freedom or our democratic principles.
