With Us on Sherman Day
Missouri Civil War Museum Director Mark Trout
was presented a flag that flew over the grave of General William T. Sherman by our camp on February 23rd. Mark was and still is the driving force behind the creation of the Museum. It is a fact to say that without him, there would be no Missouri Civil War Museum. Mark also regularly helps our camp in holding events by offering the Museum's resources. He has continually stepped up to preserve the history of the Civil War and to honor its soldiers. For all he has done to preserve history, Mark Trout deserves this rare honor. He is pictured on the right with his daughter Kristine. |
