Many of those combatants were teenagers, some no more than twelve years of age, torn from their homes amidst the turmoil of rebellion and swept along by events beyond their control, suffering devastating wounds, torturous conditions, and dying by the thousands.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese men long to have their stories heard, to know they are not forgotten, a mere footnote in the larger tale of America's internal war. And they can be heard, calling out in the silvery moonlight of Devil's Den, crying out in pain and terror at Kuhn's Brickyard, and whispering ghostly messages to frightened travelers at historic taverns.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere are seminal events that defy description, some so brutally violent and tragic that they infuse the very land with the trauma of their experience. The Battle of Gettysburg is one such milestone, a struggle for the soul of young America and a turning point in history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSomething has been left behind, the ghostly spirits of forgotten warriors, condemned to battle for eternity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eCorbett, Barry:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Barry Corbett spent six years as the lead investigator for Boston Paranormal, exploring more than 150 haunted sites throughout New England.
