    Also, Union soldiers died in a shit ton of places and you can’t just make them hallowed ground forever because of it. That’s the whole point of Arlington.

      Oh yeah, I think it was our 2nd or 3rd line that extended way out several miles from the actual memorial and that area is a bunch of chain stores.

      The recorded scope of the actual battle is a little bit hazy, but (not a military buff) I hadn’t realized how large the borders were known to be, since the park was already huge.

      I think about it every time I pass the Zaxby’s now. Someone lost everything at that Zaxby’s.
