Lincoln-Cushing Camp Tour of Loudoun County
Brings History Alive
On Saturday, October 19, Brother PDC Lee Stone led a small band of brothers on an exploration of the late
June 1863 cavalry battles of Aldie, Middleburg, and Upperville, Virginia. Brothers Bob Stine, John Crook,
and Dick Grifn enjoyed Brother Lees in-depth analysis of the battles, the decisions of the commanders,
and the geography that helped shape the outcome. Te tour concluded with an enjoyable lunch at Hunters
Head Tavern in Upperville.
Afer the Battle
of Brandy Sta-
tion in early
June, General
R. E. Lee had
his army on the
move, and Ma-
jor General Joe
Hooker wanted
to fnd out
what the Army
of Northern
Virginia was up
to. Accordingly,
Hooker issued
plain and clear
orders to Briga-
dier General
Pleasonton, the
commander of
the Army of the
Potomacs cav-
alry, to punch
through any
Confederate screen he might encounter and
discover where Lees army was and what it was
doing. On the Confederate side, Lee issued equally
clear orders to the commander of his cavalry,
Major General J. E. B. Stuart to prevent the
Federals from doing so.
What ensued was the series of see-saw battles,
named above, in which Stuarts cavalry traded space
for time, as it battled the aggressive and persistent
Federal cavalrys attacks. In the event, Stuarts
grey-clad troopers successfully fulflled their
mission and the location and movements of the
Army of Northern Virginia remained a mystery to
the upper echelons of the Federal army.
Te tour was so successful that brothers agreed that
we should make the staf ride an annual Lincoln-
Cushing Camp tradition. Please send any ideas for
future staf rides to Brother Dick Grifn at:
hoplite@earthlink.net.

A Brief History of Lincoln-Cushing Camp No. 2
Te Lincoln-Cushing Camp No.2 was
chartered in Washington, DC on 22 February,
1961, resulting from the merger of the Abraham
Lincoln Camp No. 2, founded 9 February, 1887
and the CDR. William B. Cushing Camp
No. 30, founded 1 December, 1891.
Lincoln-Cushings frst camp commander of was Maj. General Ulysses S. Grant III,
grandson of Union Army Commander and 18th President, U. S. Grant. U. S. Grant
III was also Commander-in-Chief of the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War
for two terms (1953-55), as well as Commander-in-Chief of the MOLLUS (1957).
As equally interesting is the camp association with another descendant of a Civil
War hero. When Lincoln-Cushing was charted in 1961, the very frst brother
to sign the charter was Robert Todd Lincoln Beckwith. Brother Beckwith, who
passed away in 1985, was the son of Warren Beckwith and Jessie Harlan Lincoln
(granddaughter of President Lincoln and daughter of Robert Todd Lincoln).
Brother Beckwith was the last remaining descendant of Abraham Lincoln.

Volunteering and its Surprising Benefts (Continued from Page 1)
community together. Volunteering allows you to connect to your community and make it a better place.
However, volunteering is a two-way street, and it can beneft you and your family as much as the cause
you choose to help. Dedicating your time as a volunteer helps you make new friends, expand your
network, and boost your social skills.
Volunteering helps you make
new friends and contacts
One of the best ways to make
new friends and strengthen exist-
ing relationships is to commit to
a shared activity together. Vol-
unteering is a great way to meet
new people, especially if you are
new to an area. Volunteering
also strengthens your ties to the
community and broadens your
support network, exposing you
to people with common interests,
neighborhood resources, and fun
and fulflling activities.
Volunteering increases your
social and relationship skills
While some people are naturally
outgoing, others are shy and have
a hard time meeting new people.
Volunteering gives you the op-
portunity to practice and develop
your social skills, since you are
meeting regularly with a group
of people with common interests.
Once you have momentum, its
easier to branch out and make
more friends and contacts.
Volunteering is good for your
mind and body
Volunteering provides many ben-
efts to both mental and physical
health. Volunteering increases
self-confdence. Volunteering can
provide a healthy boost to your
self-confdence, self-esteem, and
life satisfaction. You are doing
something good for others and
the community, which provides a
natural sense of accomplishment.
Your role as a volunteer can also
give you a sense of pride and
identity. And the better you feel
about yourself, the more likely
you are to have a positive view of
your life and future goals.
Volunteering helps you stay
physically healthy.
Volunteering is good for your
health at any age, but its especial-
ly benefcial in older adults. Stud-
ies have found that those who
volunteer have a lower mortality
rate than those who do not, even
when considering factors like the
health of the participants. Volun-
teering has also been shown to
lessen symptoms of chronic pain
or heart disease.
Te happiness efect
Helping others kindles happiness,
as many studies have demon-
strated. When researchers at the
London School of Economics
examined the relationship be-
tween volunteering and measures
of happiness in a large group of
American adults, they found the
more people volunteered, the
happier they were, according
to a study in Social Science and
Medicine. Compared with people
who never volunteered the odds
of being very happy rose 7%
among those who volunteer
monthly and 12% for people
who volunteer every two to four
weeks. Among weekly volunteers,
16% felt very happya hike in
happiness comparable to having
an income of $75,000$100,000
versus $20,000, say the research-
ers. Giving time to religious orga-
nizations had the greatest impact.
Volunteering can teach you
valuable skills
Volunteering can also help you
build upon skills you already
have and use them to beneft the
greater community. For instance,
if you hold a successful sales
position, you raise awareness for
your favorite cause as a volunteer
advocate, while further develop-
ing and improving your public
speaking, communication, and
marketing skills.
When it comes to volunteering,
passion and positivity are the
only requirements
While learning new skills can
be benefcial to many, its not a
requirement for a fulflling vol-
unteer experience. Bear in mind
that the most valuable skills you
can bring to any volunteer efort
are compassion, an open mind,
a willingness to do whatever is
needed, and a positive attitude.

Volunteering brings fun and fulfllment
to your life
Volunteering is a fun and easy way to explore your
interests and passions. Doing volunteer work you
fnd meaningful and interesting can be a relaxing,
energizing escape from your day-to-day routine
of work, school, or family commitments. Volun-
teering also provides you with renewed creativity,
motivation, and vision that can carry over into your
personal and professional life.
Volunteering with the Lincoln-Cushing Camp

Into the Civil War? Or Visiting Washington?
Youll want this book
Testament to Union: Civil War Monuments in Washington, D.C.
by Kathryn Allamong Jacob
Johns Hopkins University Press, 1998

Tis fascinating and valuable book describes the 41 Civil
War monuments in the District of Columbia, nearby
Maryland, and northern Virginia -- the equestrian statues
on Washingtons trafc circles, the Emancipation statue of
Lincoln and a freed slave, Arlington Cemetery, the Lincoln
Memorial, the Arsenal Monument to 21 women killed
in 1864 while making cartridges for the Union Army, and
many others. Its both a guidebook and a history.
In each chapter, author Katherine Allamong Jacob covers
the event or individual honored, the movement to erect a
monument, the selection of a sculptor, design and con-
struction, and the dedication ceremony. She introduces
artists once widely known and honored -- Daniel Chester
French, Felix de Weldon, Gutzon Borglum, Henry Merwin
Shrady, and Vinnie Ream Hoxie among them -- to a new
generation.
Considered together, the 41 chapters add up to a long essay
on historical memory. Statues were, and are, more than
the sum of their metal and stone parts, wrote Jacob in the
introduction. Public monuments yield cultural power.
Each one carries a heavy load of invisible ideological bag-
gage. Mundane as they may appear, ubiquitous as they may
be, public monuments constitute serious cultural authority
... they impose a memory of an event or individual in the
public landscape that orders our lives. Tese monuments
confer a legitimacy upon the memory they embody.... And
by imprinting one memory, they erase others.
Te Civil War was a defning event, breaking American
history into a before and afer. Every American needs
to understand the wars origins in slavery, expressed in
sectionalism, and the political, economic, legal, and social
dimensions of how the Union and the founding ideals of
the nation were challenged by secession. Studying these
monuments provides a lens.
Every American needs to understand the course of the
war -- its events from Fort Sumter to Gettysburg to Ap-
pomattox. It was noble and vile, the last of the old wars
and the frst of the new.
It chewed up lives on
a scale unprecedented
in history. It bought
out the best and worst
in men. Tese monu-
ments can help visi-
tors know more of the
confict.
And all Americans
need to understand
the wars legacy -- the
changes it worked
in American history. Tis means Americans
need to consider how the war has been remembered and
interpreted. It is in this last area that this volume is so
valuable. When most of the monuments were unveiled, for
instance, the history of slavery, secession, and Jim Crow
had been muted in a lost cause narrative. Testament to
Union helps reveal the treatment of the war by subsequent
generations.
In a book full of instructive stories, this readers favor-
ite comes from Jacobs narrative of the dedication of the
Nuns of the Battlefeld monument, opposite St. Mathews
Cathedral, in 1924, close to 60 years afer the war ended.
One of the frst speakers noted the poignancy of the fact
that so many years had elapsed before the sisters were hon-
ored that not one who had nursed the Civil War soldiers
remained to hear the tributes, she wrote. From out of the
crowd of hundreds of nuns seated in front of the platform
arose a surviving nun of the battlefeld, who walked
stooped and with head bowed up to the platform to thun-
derous applause. Afer a hurried consultation, Archbishop
Curley of Baltimore announced that the elderly nun was
Sister Magdeline of the Sisters of Mercy. She received a
long ovation.
Oh, to have been there!

Packed with memory, emotion, and meaning
The Columbia Book of Civil War Poetry: From Whitman to Walcott
Richard Marius and Keith Frome, editors
Columbia University Press, 1994

Te scar of the Civil War seems mostly healed now, but
memories of the pain linger, and shame, and inspire.
We relive the war in flms -- Gone With the Wind,
say, or Glory. We still read novels of red badges and
killer angels. Bradys photos still take us to the battle-
felds, though he arrived some hours afer the worst
carnage, usually. In the carte-de-visite photos of fore-
bears and their brothers in the regiment, we look for
-- ourselves. Paintings and dioramas capture the terror
and bloodletting and nobility -- showing
more of the latter
than the former -- on
the canvases. Tough
as the years pass we
hear less ofen Te
Battle Cry of Free-
dom or Tenting To-
night or Te Vacant
Chair, the Battle
Hymn still quickens
our hearts. On Memo-
rial Day and Dr. Kings
Birthday, we remember
the wars legacy. Yet
still we want more,
for in the clash of blue
and gray, the burnished
rows of steel, and the
buckets of blood and
limbs in the surgeons
tents, we ponder war
and peace and equality
and justice, for us and
for humanity.
For some of that more, turn to this volume. From
the time of the frst battles, American poets wrote out
their own images, their own stories, their own broken
and divided hearts, their own horrors, in lines on the
page. Here are the words of Melville and Whitman and
Howe and Longfellow and Whittier, who saw the war
themselves. Here are Masters and Dunbar and War-
ren and Lindsay and Sandburg and Hughes, who knew
the war from hearing the stories, reading the tales, and
feeling the heartbeats of their countrymen. Tis rich
anthology runs back and forth in time, crosses the bro-
ken terrain of emotions, reaches up Little Round Top
and down into the crater, aches for the dreams of north
and south (neither come true), and looks at the men
at war and the monuments that honor them. Editors
Richard Marius and Keith
Frome chose well.
Did you see the movie
Glory? Test your literary
grasp against the poems
of Paul Laurence Dunbar,
William Vaughn Moody,
John Berryman, and
Robert Lowell on the
St. Gaudens monument
on Boston Common.
And contemplate what
Will Henry Tomp-
son meant, writing of
Picketts charge at Get-
tysburg, by the word
Glory.
And if youve a mind to
ponder Vietnam and
Iraq and Afghanistan,
read Canto VII of
William Vaughn Moodys Ode in
Time of Hesitation (1900), one of the poems inspired
by Colonel Robert Gould Shaw and the 54th Mas-
sachusetts Volunteer Infantry. Do not fuent men of
place and consequence still intone their dull com-
mercial liturgies? And whose heart cannot jump when
the words from Moodys pen leap into our century --
We are our fathers sons: let those who lead us know.

Unique and quite readable, Tis book does not belong in
any of the usual categories of Civil War books
Civil War Acoustic Shadows
by Charles D. Ross
Shippensburg PA, White Mane Books: 2001

Tis book was written, not by a history professor, but by a
physics professor (at Longwood University in Farmville,
VA) who happens to have a great interest in Civil War
history. Professor Ross has investigated the physics behind
the phenomenon known as acoustic shadow: areas near a
sound-producing event (such as a battle) where the sounds
of that event, though very loud, cannot be heard by the
human ear. In this book he uses that knowledge to explain
some unusual events of the Civil War.
Te Battle of Gaines Mill, on 27 June 1862, was the frst
battle in which Robert E. Lee commanded the Confederate
army that he would lead for the rest of the war. Te book
begins with a well-documented episode during that battle,
of individuals actually watching combat as it occurred, but
being unable to hear the sounds emanating from that
combat. Professor Ross adds some fascinating detail
about the 19th-century state of scientifc investigation
and explanation of such events.
Chapter 2 of this book explains in terms at once scientifc,
and clear and simple enough for any non-physicist to
understand, the physics of the human sense of hearing,
and the causes of acoustic shadow. Professor Ross also
addresses why such an event can sometimes be heard many
miles away, though inaudible closer to the event.
Chapter 3 describes why, lacking radios, Civil War leaders
relied on the sounds of battle in certain situations to make
decisions or initiate actions. Tis of course implies, as
Professor Ross states, that acoustic shadow might afect the
progress or outcome of a battle in which it occurred.
Chapters 4-9 describe six battles in which acoustic shadow
had or may have had an efect on the battle. In order of
occurrence, they are: the Battles of Fort Donelson, Seven
Pines, Iuka, Perryville, Chancellorsville, and Five Forks.
In each chapter, Professor Ross indicates what role sound
had in that battle, gives the evidence for acoustic shadow,
attempts to identify
likely causes of acoustic shadow in that context,
and explains its efect on the battle.
Tis book does not belong in any of the usual categories of
Civil War books. Its purpose is clearly not the recounting
of particular battles in detail, nor the analysis of the actions
of military leaders of either side. It is a uniqueand quite
readablescientifc explanation of a physical phenomenon
that, without investigation, might appear to be no more
than an overactive imagination at work, or an inventive
attempt to escape blame for a bad outcome. Kudos to
Professor Ross for successfully applying his specialized
knowledge to the world outside the compartment of his
professional expertise.
