@Kris_SacreBleu @BeschlossDC Been to Arlington National Cemetery as well, very somber, impressive, tomb of unknowns! JFK site/flame, etc!
@WYVeteran @BeschlossDC R.E Lee's heirs sued the federal government over the "land grab" for Arlington Cemetery; Lincoln's son handled case!
@Kris_SacreBleu @BeschlossDC Exactly, He married into the land & house, it was his wife's if I remember correctly, sued, went on for years!
@WYVeteran @BeschlossDC oh sweet irony, you impress me so!
He's not dead. "@BeschlossDC: Arlington Cemetery started 150 yrs ago yesterday--Union buried dead at R.E. Lee's home so he wouldn't return.
@BeschlossDC Some poetic justice In how Arlington National Cemetery came to be - Flee! R.E Lee! http://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/how-arlington-national-cemetery-came-to-be-145147007/ …
@BeschlossDC Although I find Arlington to be very peaceful and beautiful,I find that to be sad, Lee deserved better.
@BeschlossDC It was a great idea. RIP.
