I visited Gettysburg yesterday and came upon the monument to the 11th Pennsylvania Volunteers. The veterans when designing their monument thought so highly of their mascot that they included her in the design. I hope you enjoy her story.

And if you happen upon Sallie be sure to leave her a dog biscuit there next to her. She’s earned it.

It is said that there were only three things Sallie had a distaste for, Rebels, Democrats and women. Two out of three ain't bad.

She WAS fighting on the other side. Bit of a survival characteristic, I expect.

I wonder what the handsome lad was thinking about up there in the Devil’s Den. If I could, I would press my warmest kiss straight between those sweet, silken ears.
