Oops! Hit the send key on the above before I was finished... duh!!! :>) General Logan served in the Civil War under General Grant and after the war, served as an Illinois senator. He wanted a day set aside to honor ALL the fallen from the war.....something to include those from the north AND the south.
I'm proud to say, I'm related to the man who brought about this day.... General John A. Logan was my dad's grandfather's cousin.
