The American Battlefield Trust will hold an artillery demonstration at the site of Gen. Robert E. Lee’s headquarters in Gettysburg for the anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg. This will be the first time that a cannon has been fired on this ground on July 1 since the original Battery B was there on July 1, 1863!
The federal Battlefield Land Acquisition Grants Program remains one of the most successful historic land preservation tools in American history. Ask your elected representatives in Washington to reauthorize the program at $20 million annually – double the current authorization – and continue its legacy of battlefield preservation success.
The American Battlefield Trust and our members have saved more than 50,000 acres in 24 states!
