I had the great pleasure today to meet Mr. Michael Kraus and his good friend Mr. David Neville, editor of Military Images Magazine. Mike, a Civil War historian and artist, will be sculpting the replacement sword for the General James Nagle statue at Antietam. He was at the park this morning to take some measurements.

The weather was picture-perfect and the morning a fine one, indeed. I am thrilled at the progress of this project. To everyone who has thus far contributed to the restoration project, I cannot thank you enough. We are one step closer to getting the general his sword back!
