Thanksgiving?

     In the Fall of 1862 after the Great Battles of The Seven Days that saved the Capital from the the Northern Hoarde, citizens back to a "normal" route noticed a horrible sight at Oakwood Confederate Cemetery.

     Many bodies of our sacred dead were lying in the open!  The buzz of the City was to fix this disgrace.  In the end it was due to lack of resources to bury so many Fallen Heroes; so the City made it right.  In the heat of Battle all around them our Fore-Father's thought enough of Their Dead to do the best They could to remedy the situation.  It was Their Brothers, Sons and Fathers lying naked in the Sun.  

     What has happened to us? Where is our outrage?  How can we just blot out of our minds the current disgrace happening in Oakwood Cemetery?

     We have the resources to fix this outrage of dishonoring our Boys buried without markers, but The Oakwood Restoration Committee of The Virginia Division refuses to respond to their charge to place makers, even when 3 are standing ready to be placed, why?  Why during this Thanksgiving Season we still have men refusing to do the right thing with our scared dead?
