This is what kind of idiots they are. There are no rebels buried at Gettysburg.

Well, not at the National Cemetery, anyway. But a lot of Confederates got buried right where they fell, in usually unmarked graves, and many were never returned to their families.

Most of the Union soldiers are buried in the Soldiers’ National Cemetery at Gettysburg. What happened to the Confederate dead?
The southern dead were removed to cemeteries in North and South Carolina, Georgia, and Virginia between 1871 and 1873. Most of the Confederate dead were interred at Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond, Virginia in a special section set aside specifically for the casualties of Gettysburg.
