The sculpture is composed of individual dog tags engraved with the name of each of the U.S. soldiers, sailors, airmen, and nurses who lost their lives in the Vietnam War! The tags are then hung as a group in the foyer ceiling of the small museum. This sculpture took over 2 years to create with the artists engraving tags eight hours a day for five days a week and measures 10x40 feet. It is a stunning sight. At the time of this photo it was in the Richard Steinbock and Ned Broderick and National Vietnam War Art Museum in Chicago, Illinois. (2001) Now the National Veterans Art Museum.

Description
An account of the resource
Originally established as a Union Army assembly camp in 1861 with the start of the US Civil War, the camp in early 1862 also became a prisoner of war camp for captured Confederate soldiers. The location was not ideal and rations were limited resulting in heavy loss of life among the prisoners who were buried here. Both Union and Confederate soldiers were buried here and the location continued as a military cemetery after the war. Many remains of US servicemen returned from overseas after World War II also were interred here. The images and marker in the accompanying photos are only from the Confederate section of the cemetery.

An account of the resource
On top of a large stone base resides the sculpture of three Union soldiers. One stands upright holding a tattered American flag, while another kneels with his gun aimed at the enemy and the third lies resting against the 2nd with the remnants of a flag pole still in his arms. On the base front is a weathered bronze plaque stating "Sacred to the Memory of the Soldiers of Macon County and the Heroes of the Civil War 1861-1865." There is a date of 1904 chiseled between the plaque and the sculpture. On the back of the base is another bronze plaque which announces the Grand Army of the Republic was organized in this city April 6, 1866.
