| One tiny way we have found to pay our respects to those who served from 1861-1865, is by making sure that those we know of, who have broken memorial stones, get a proper Veterans Administration Stone, noting their service during the war. To date we have replaced a dozen or so, many Confederate and a few Union. It has been a few years now, and I understand it is a little more difficult to obtain a VA Stone, without being a family member, but we are proud of those we have done, and will pursue the new guidelines, for those we may find in the future. My No. 1 digging buddy, Jack Ferguson, is himself a veteran of the Vietnam War, and always ready to help. SB |

| " We went into winter quarters at Dalton, our regiment being in front of the general army. We camped near Tunnel Hill. We had good foraging ground and could get chickens, eggs, butter, so we lived high. John Loftin was Captain of the foragers and he was a good one too. He only got caught once but he lied out of that." - Private William E. Bevens, Co. G, First Arkansas Infantry, C.S.A. - Winter Quarters near Tunnel Hill, Georgia - Winter of 1863/1864 - From the book, " Reminiscences of A Private", by William E. Bevens, Edited with an Introduction by Daniel E. Sutherland |

| Beautiful Slick U.S. Boxplate with Both Loops |
|
| Here is A Beautiful Dug U.S. Cartridge Box Plate, with Both Iron Loops Still Present ! This plate has the slickest, smooth dark patina I've seen in a while, with a few bumps and imperfections, but very little ground action on the face. The reverse shows most of the lead solder present, though it has been hot and slipped to one side, and both iron loops are still present in good condition. The link at left goes to Accoutrement Plates !

| Nice Fully Functional 1828 Austrian .69 Caliber Musket w/Bayonet |
|
| Here is A Nice 1828 Pattern, .69 Caliber Austrian Flintlock Musket w/Bayonet ! It has a wonderfully preserved wood stock that almost has a natural tiger stripe in it. The flint mechanism still works perfectly in both positions and the barrel is dated, 1832. Original ramrod is present, and I believe the bayonet may be original to the musket too, as it fits perfectly. If you ever wanted a flintlock for your long gun collection, this one is affordable. Give it a look. Link at left goes to Firearms.
