Inside the Chattanooga city limits. Public place. I want to know what it is and where it is. Be specific.  |

I think Joe's right. Isn't that the Southern Cross of Honor?

would it be better if the winner was a photo of said thing?
instead of remembering a thing you've got to get off your butt and go take its picture?

There would definitely be a level of difficulty there when I eventually post a picture of my balls.
(or not)

I would not have guess it if I had not scouted the place for an Investigation  |

My picture was of the upper stone, so technically, you didn't get a picture of the right one.

Having mowed and cleared brush around that cemetery many, many times, I knew that one immediately.
Did you know that the flag flown on the flagpole is the Confederate National Flag? When the pole was first installed, the battle flag was flown. It got stolen, a lot. Then the rope mount was moved so that you needed a bucket truck to change the flag. People would shinny up the pole and steal it. Once they decided to not fly the battle flag and instead fly the national flag, as far as I know it hasn't been stolen once.

Man...bunch of redneck retards. The vast majority of them don't have a clue about which flag means what...
Kinda makes me laugh every time I think about the outcry to change Georgia's flag vs. what they changed it to.

Yeah, its even funnier when you know the national flag costs a lot more than the battle flag (they don't make nearly as many, so the price goes up).
