Late on October 28, 1863, and early on October 29, 1863, Union and Confederate soldiers clashed near the small rail junction of Wauhatchie, Tennessee. Confederates, determined to slam the door shut on the roads leading to Brown's Ferry, launched an unsuccessful night attack.

You may have noticed our goats if you recently took the self-guided tour at Chickamauga Battlefield. Although it took time and lots of involvement, the park is clearing the forest naturally instead of using more invasive forestry equipment. https://t.co/KOabFeQ7sa

The goats are back to work in the area to take care of invasive species, this time at the national military park. Get prepared to hear about this adorable and environmentally-friendly method.
