What's that sign at the entrance? "Be silent, friend. Brave men died here."

If you find a quiet place, and get away from the crowds, you can feel the weight of the place.

I've always known, that it seemed strange to people from other parts of the country, all of this pride we take in being a Texan. I'm also sure that a lot of it has been dismissed as ,those Texans sure do brag a lot. But, when you read stories like this, maybe it will help you'all to understand that it's, not all brag. Sometimes, it's legitimate pride.
