Extractions: The romantic depiction of the cavalry was a dashing young soldier mounted on a handsome horse, charging onto the battlefield armed with only a saber to decide the contest. In reality, cavalrymen played a much more important role as the eyes and ears of the army. Find out more about the soldiers who rode into battle on horse back.

Extractions: Located 50 miles northwest of Baltimore, the small town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania was the site of the largest battle ever waged during the American Civil War. Fought in the first three days of July 1863, the Battle of Gettysburg resulted in a hallmark victory for the Union "Army of the Potomac" and successfully ended the second invasion of the North by General Robert E. Lee's "Army of Northern Virginia". Historians have referred to the battle as a major turning point in the war, the "High Water Mark of the Confederacy". It was also the bloodiest single battle of the war, resulting in over 51,000 soldiers killed, wounded, captured or missing. The Soldiers' National Cemetery at Gettysburg was dedicated on November 19, 1863, when President Abraham Lincoln delivered his immortal Gettysburg Address. The cemetery contains more than 7,000 interments including over 3,500 from the Civil War. Post-battle efforts preserved small portions of the battlefield as a memorial to the Union victory. On February 11, 1895, congressional legislation was signed to establish Gettysburg National Military Park as a memorial dedicated to the armies that fought this great battle. Gettysburg National Military Park incorporates nearly 6,000 acres, with 26 miles of park roads and over 1,400 monuments, markers, and memorials.

Extractions: Echoes of war Memorials and battlefields preserve Civil War history in Arkansas By Durand Young Northwest Arkansas On two cold March days in 1862, more than 26,000 soldiers clashed in the first major Civil War engagement in Arkansas, the Battle of Pea Ridge, also known to the Confederacy as the Battle of Elkhorn Tavern. The Union victory was the largest battle west of the Mississippi River. One Union officer would later write he had not seen any fighting compared to that at Elkhorn Tavern on March 7. Prairie Grove Battlefield State Park (501-846-2990), located southwest of Fayetteville, memorializes the intense fighting and retreat of Confederate forces on Dec. 7, 1862. It was the last major engagement in northwest Arkansas. The park contains 19th-century buildings and a mile-long walking trail of the battlefield. The visitor center offers an audiovisual program and exhibits. Headquarters House Museum (501-521-2020), which served as headquarters for both sides during the war, was in the midst of the Battle of Fayetteville in April 1863 when Confederate forces tried unsuccessfully to dislodge the small Union contingent based in the city. Living history programs are presented at the 1853 Greek Revival home. The Fayetteville Confederate Cemetery provides a peaceful, picturesque resting place for casualties from Pea Ridge, Prairie Grove and other battles.

Extractions: External Links Causes Russian military reverses, heavy casualties, and economic hardship contributed to the Russian revolution which withdrew the country from the First World War , releasing German forces for an offensive against the other Allies on the Western Front. Chaos led long repressed nationalist aspirations around the perimeter of the Russian empire to declare independence. Bolshevik excesses soon began to coalesce various factions, and civil war broke out. Japan was the first to exploit Russian weakness with an apparent view to annexing the maritime provinces in the East. Chronology (except battles, which see

Extractions: As Memorial Day was founded in 1868 to honor the dead of the Civil War, it is entirely appropriate this week to focus on JP's most familiar landmark, the Monument at the intersection of South and Centre Streets. Officially it is the Soldier's Monument in West Roxbury, since our area was part of Norfolk County. Under her ardent war governor, John A. Andrew, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts raised $42,000,000 for the war effort and sent 159,000 sailors and soldiers to the Civil War. Of this number, 46 from the town of West Roxbury went off never to return, buried from the shores of Texas to the valleys of Pennsylvania. The Reports of the Town of West Roxbury from the Committee on the Soldier's Monument best describe our Monument's origin. First is the 1869/70 Report, noting the appointment of a committee of eight men to erect "a suitable monument or memorial tablet in honor of the West Roxbury men who lost their lives in the service of their country during the Rebellion." This was done in accordance with the wishes of a Town Meeting held on November 5, 1869. The Committee quickly fell to work and in its debut in the same Town Report had a site chosen and had procured plans and estimates for several types of monuments. It was determined by a majority vote (often done elsewhere) that $15,000 was needed for the memorial. In addition, the Committee had established a list of the dead of the town - interestingly, with no sailors among them despite our coastal location. Although more than 40 were found, only 23 who had been actual residents of the town at enlistment were inscribed.

Extractions: The site contains balanced, substantive coverage of the Civil War, including its causes, famous battles, and leaders. The content is appropriate for secondary level students, but the sections on food, music, and "fascinating facts" of the war would interest younger learners as well. For the teacher or student, this is a great place to find the "basics."

The Virtual CSA Purple Heart This memorial is posthumously awarded to those wounded or killed while serving the Confederacy. Since the Confederacy ceased to exist there is no nation presently surviving to recognize the sacrifice of the Confederate soldier. It is up to us, the living descendants to remember their sacrifice, and to never forget their heroic deeds. Our ancestors are people too, and although they are gone, their spirits remain. It is a basic human need to be remembered by one's family and the communities where they lived, fought and bled for. They were not traitors, they were American heroes that were loyal to their State government. We should remember them appropriately. Example: "The Virtual CSA Purple Heart Award"
Extractions: In nearly every city, town or village in the UK there is a monument to the war-dead. No one really knows how many there are, but current estimates place the number at more than 60,000. Hundreds of volunteers and a few dedicated staff at Britain's Imperial War Museum are working on a 10- year project to catalogue them all for posterity. Lost landmarks Often pictures of war memorials were made into postcards Many war memorials have become decaying local landmarks that hardly draw a second glance. In 1988 the museum's director-general, Alan Borg, became concerned that the monuments could one day be lost forever and no record of them would exist. He started the National Inventory of War Memorials, which is expected to be completed by 2001. Nick Hewitt, who has been running the project for the past couple of years, says that so far around 27,000 memorials have been recorded. When the whole project is finished it is hoped the results will be available on the Internet.
