That's sweet big D. Congrats.
 
Great Saves on the CW lead. I especially like the carved lead star. Finding carved bullets is one of my favorites. Very personal, and you have to admire the time spent and the craftsmanship of the carver. It makes one wonder too about who the carver was, where were they from, and did they survive the war being able to return home at the wars end, so on, and so forth. We'll Done Digger70pa.

Likely, since being a Cav site, carved to replace a Spur rowel, very cool

I like that better, and very possible, some units from the 8th were sent to Gettysburg to help the Army of the Potomac (y)

They were with Milroy in Winchester when he got defeated. They retreated towards this spot & some units were sent to Mead after the battle as reinforcements to chase Lee. I see two scenarios.
