The Soldiers' National Monument is a Gettysburg Battlefield memorial which is located at the central point of Gettysburg National Cemetery. It honors the battle's soldiers and tells an allegory of "peace and plenty under freedom … following a heroic struggle." In addition to an inscription with the last four lines of the Gettysburg Address, the shaft with four buttresses has five statues.

This image was from the collection of the late William A. Turner.  [jet]  [ph:L]
