Is that tablet at Water Oaks Pond? Where 650 men of Wood's Brigade made a bayonet charge?
A couple of years ago, we hiked down past Ruggles Battery, through the woods to locate a tablet for Wood's Brigade that is buried in the woods near the Lost Field. I think I took a picture of it, but am not sure which one it is? Does anyone know which tablet Im talking about? It may have already been posted? If not, could someone please post a picture of it? Thanks!
That marker needs some love.This marker is across the holler from where Albert Sydney Johnston died . View attachment 359076View attachment 359076
I have tried . Broke saw blade back in winter trying to get that tree off his marker .That marker needs some love.
Great pictures. I have to check my pics from my one trip to Shiloh in June 2017. Didn't have time to go to all of the burial trenches. It was only about a 5 hour visit and we were dodging rain showers.This is the seldom seen Confederate Burial Trench (# 2) which is in a beautiful location.

This is my grandson @kilroy15 standing in front of the trench. To give you an idea of the size of this grave, the 10 pound balls are 3' a part. 45' x 9'
