Excellent piece.
My wife's great-grandfather, a Civil War Veteran and surivor of the infamous Andersonville prison, is among those interred at this cemetery.

The final paragraph is truly outstanding...and a somewhat of a miracle in that it survived the editor’s pen.

How much more when we consider the freedom we have in Christ Jesus! It, too, came at a great price. And because Jesus paid it all, those who trust in Him never have to see the atrocities of war He saw, or fight the enemy like He did. Our past is forgiven. Our future is secure. And one day, when the roll is called, the names of God's chosen will be found in the Book of Life, written in the blood of a fearless Warrior who knows what real freedom looks like. Amen!
