New Battlefield Monument Placed to Honor Civil War Regular Army UnitsKennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park New Monument to Soldiers
The yearlong effort by the 15th Infantry Regiment Association was made possible by the generous donations of individual and corporate sponsors without whose support this Monument would not have been possible. Active duty and former members of these Regiments have participated in the Monument planning process. Active duty soldiers of the 15th Infantry and 19th Infantry have partnered with the 15th Infantry Regiment Association to erect the Monument as a tribute to Civil War members of these fine historic units. The Monument dedication ceremony is scheduled for Noon, 27 June 2014 during the 150th anniversary events at the Park. Civil War 150 events in the Park are scheduled throughout 26-29 June. Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park is a 2,965 acre National Battlefield that preserves a Civil War battleground of the Atlanta Campaign. Opposing forces maneuvered and fought there from 19 June 1864 until 2 July 1864. The Park is located northwest of metro Atlanta along Interstate 75.
