A True Story!

A man, while out mushroom hunting, found three or four headstones. Before calling FCCS, he had called the sheriff’s department. We intended to venture out Saturday morning to look at the stones and attempt to figure out where they belong.

Flash! As of this morning, we were able to determine that the stones were from Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery.

A call to the cemetery revealed that these were discarded stones, due to condition, that had been replaced. Amazingly, Jefferson Barracks sent someone out to Catawissa to retrieve the headstones. As of now, they are destroyed to prevent them from being “released into the wild” yet again. Now that’s efficient government!

Marc thought all of you would enjoy this story.
