  1. 00,my gosh l have teared up....Thank you very much..... Walking thru Arlington Cemetery and on into the Civil War part of it....An looking up to where Robert E Lee home was or is....It will make the hair stand up on your neck and in it's own rite a very scary place...l have some kin on both sides Blue & Gray buried there...A short story...my late brother was named James R Shoemaker and he was once a Army Captain of Artillery he went on to become a General...Anyway we were raised up here in Kentucky just across the line to Tennessee and Virginia here very close to Cumberland Gap.....There was a Civil War battle here and get this one of the listed dead was one Confederate Captain James R Shoemaker of Artillery so what a parallel that is... to be sure...Thanks again...!
