This is the last post on the Battles of Chattanooga and Chickamauga.   Below is a photo of the Wilder Brigade Monument in honor of Colonel John T. Wilder and his “Lightning Brigade”.

This building was used to treat injured soldiers from both sides of the battle.

Memorials and monuments line all seven miles of the park.

Memorials in honor of both the Union and Confederate troops line the seven mile tour throughout the park.

The battles of Chattanooga and Chickamauga were the costliest battles in terms of lives lost during the Civil War.  Almost 50,000 soldiers sacrificed their lives during these battles.
