From Mitch Slater:

This photo has always stopped me in my tracks.
It was taken in 1913 at the 50th anniversary of Gettysburg — where Union and Confederate veterans, now old men, reached across the very ground where they once fought each other in the bloodiest conflict on American soil. My grandfather George was there as a young boy helping this photographer.

They didn’t agree on everything.
Some wounds never fully healed.
But they showed up.
They shook hands.
They remembered that the country was bigger than the argument.

On today, I’m thinking about the courage it takes not only to fight — but to reconcile, rebuild, and believe again in something shared.

We honor every veteran who served — not for a party, a personality, or a moment in time — but for a country, a home, and an idea still worth striving toward: Democracy!

May we never forget the cost of our freedom.

And may we always find our way back to each other.
