The tune is very appropriate and I appreciate there are so many WBTS images, but it has always bothered me there were so few Southern soldier photos in comparison to the Yankees. The reason is obvious...that the photographers were businessmen that followed the opportunity, the money, the practical logistics, including the battlefield victories of the North. I wish there were more photos of LIVING Confederate soldiers in the field.

90% of the group photos of Confederate soldiers is the one shot of Camp Douglas in 1864. Sad.

Fading light, dims the sight,
And a star gems the sky, gleaming bright.
From afar, drawing nigh,
Falls the night.
