Major General George E. Pickett memorial at Hollywood.
It was during Pickett’s Charge on the third day of the Battle of
Gettysburg that the flag that is at the center of the mystery in Dead Survivors was
captured by the First Minnesota Volunteers from the 28th Virginia regiment. The Pickett monument is
perhaps the least auspiciously sited monument in the cemetery.

The Confederate Pyramid
monument at Hollywood, a key scene in Dead Survivors. The ninety-foot
monument, constructed of granite, was completed in 1889 as a tribute to
18,000 Confederate enlisted men who are buried near-by. Many of those
buried died at Gettysburg. |
