Reflections of Chickamauga, a Pictoral.

A few pictures from the 150th anniversary of the second bloodiest battle of the Civil War. The commemoration is behind us but may we never forget.

This site, in downtown LaFayette, was Bragg's pre-battle headquarters.

The visitor center at the Chickamauga Battlefield site is a must see for park visitors.
