This is a detail of the Stonewall Jackson monument on his gravesite.  Stonewall Jackson spent a good portion of his life here in Lexington, Virginia and when he was passed away from pneumonia brought on by his wounding at the Battle of Chancellorsville, he was brought here back home to be buried.  When he was being brought home, his body was brought through VMI where he taught before the outbreak of the war.  Jackson's family is buried here with him. © Mike Lynaugh
