Good post and thanks, but I'm with Spartacus, cause there's many folks that have no clue who this guy was. Maybe though, Burnt Chimney, you caused a little spark of curiousity and folks will go research him.

That's the reason for the title just to stir a little thought for those that don't know of the place or the Man . Sorry guys I meant no disrespect , but you can faintly make out the name on stone base.
Well, I had to research to make sure I had the right guy I thought it was York, but then again, it could have been any doughboy for that matter. I just knew of his actions, not where he was born, or little else about him except for his war record. There was a song about him too if I recall correctly.

I knew you meant no disrespect, Burnt Chimney. His family was just like mine, Scot-Irish, Cherokee, and Choctaw. My God, the things he did in battle. He was either really p*ssed off or scared sh*tless. I liked that he tried to look out for and take care of his people after he got home from the war. Thanks for bringin him up.
