Join us for our Annual Wreath Laying at the Irish Brigade Memorial on Sunday, 15 Dec 2024

 Bob Fitzgerald  December 2, 2024

The General Meagher Division has a tradition of laying a wreath on the Irish Brigade Memorial at the Fredericksburg City Dock in December to honor their bravery and sacrifice at the Battle of Fredericksburg in December 1862. This year we will be mustering at the Memorial at 11:00 with the brief ceremony occurring at 11:30. We will then proceed to the Colonial Tavern for lunch and fellowship. Feel free to join us!
