Sitting on the left is Judge Holt. Sitting on the right is my great grandfather, Brig Gen Henry Lawrence Burnett. 2nd Ohio Cavalry, before joining the Judge Advocate Corp. A group of reenactors got in touch with me and took over the maintenance of his grave and put up an historical plaque there. Someone tracked me down just last week all excited because they’d bought his summer home. At one time a rock musician bought it and used to ride his motorcycle inside.

Wow! Thanks! I just visited Gettysburg with an expert on the battle, who is also a friend of mine. I learned a lot about that aspect of the war. That is why I though of Chamberlain.

Your Great grandfather holds a very important place in our country's history.
