"there never was a Civil War battle that took place on Minnesota soil that would have called for memorializing those who died."

Do you think that had there been a Confederate invasion of Minnesota that had been routed by the Minnesotans, that there would be a memorial at the battle grounds memorializing the Confederates?

It appears there is already a Union monument at Olustee, or at least at the Cemetery. Has been since 1991.

I have no idea where this is in relation to the battlefield or the proposed site.
