No problem. Here are a few more.

Brigadier General William H.L. Wallace was commander of one of the two Union divisions trapped in the Hornet's Nest (General Prentiss was the other) and was shot in the head while trying to lead his men to safety. Left for dead, he was found to still be alive when Federal troops retook the field the next day. He was taken up to Savannah, where he died a few days later, his wife at his side.

The Peach Orchard was replanted a few years ago, but the battlefield's enormous deer population has forced the park rangers to erect these barriers around the trees until they are large enough to fend for themselves.

The Bloody Pond, where many of the battle's casualties crawled to relieve their thirst, and where many died of their wounds. Numerous eyewitness accounts tell of the pond's waters being stained red from the blood of the dead and wounded gathered around its banks.
