Following the Battle of Port Republic, the final battle of Gen. Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson’s successful Shenandoah Valley Campaign, Jackson and his men camped near Weyers Cave between the Middle and South Rivers. On June 14, 1862, he and his chief of staff Rev. Robert L. Dabney held a camp prayer service under the canopy of several large trees.
Over time this 350-year-old oak tree stood proudly on the edge of a farm field, located near Mt. Meridian in Augusta County, Grottoes, Virginia. This tree is believed to have been among those shade trees. In Shenandoah Valley legends, this giant oak became known as the “Stonewall Jackson Prayer Tree”.
The disease weakened ancient oak was felled by high winds on May 27, 2011. The farmland and tree were owned by the Wilkerson family, and they knew the story of the old oak and had been careful to preserve it.

T-Mobile Park: Where the Mariners Make Magic Under the Roof
T-Mobile Park stands proudly in Seattle’s SoDo district, a retractable-roof gem with jaw-dropping views of Elliott Bay and the skyline. It opened on July 15, 1999, as Safeco Field, welcoming a capacity crowd for the inaugural game against the San Diego Padres just after the All-Star break. Built for $517 million to replace the aging Kingdome, it quickly became one of baseball’s most beloved modern parks.
With a seating capacity of roughly 47,368, the park features a unique retractable roof that covers the field and stands like a giant umbrella without fully enclosing the space—preserving that classic open-air feel even on rainy Seattle nights. The massive center-field video board (one of the largest in MLB when installed) and the hand-operated scoreboard keep the energy high, while the grass field and intimate sightlines create a pure baseball experience.
Home of the Seattle Mariners since 1999, T-Mobile Park has hosted two MLB All-Star Games (2001 and 2023), multiple postseason series, and legendary moments from the 116-win 2001 squad through recent playoff runs. It has also staged WrestleMania XIX, the 2024 NHL Winter Classic, and countless other events. From Ken Griffey Jr.’s heroics to the modern core led by Julio Rodríguez and company, the park continues to pulse with the hope and heart of Mariners fans.
As the Mariners chase that long-awaited World Series banner, T-Mobile Park remains the electric heart of Northwest baseball—a place where every seat has a story, and every blank carries a piece of it.

On On September 19, 1864, Major General Phillip Sheridan led the VI and XIX Corps in an advance toward Winchester along the Berryville Pike, crossing Opequon Creek east of the town. The Union's initial progress was slowed, allowing Major General Jubal Early to gather his forces to confront the main assault. Both seasoned Union and Confederate divisions engaged fiercely for hours. Eventually, Early's Confederate forces were pushed back toward Winchester, consolidating their defenses around the northern outskirts of the town. In the late afternoon, the VIII Corps and Union cavalry successfully flanked the Confederate left, prompting Early to order a general retreat. This Union triumph marked the beginning of a series of defeats for Early's army in the Shenandoah Valley, from which it would not recover. The Battle of Winchester was notable as the largest and most costly engagement in the region during that time.
The Third Battle of Winchester, also known as the Battle of Opequon or Battle of Opequon Creek, was an American Civil War battle fought near Winchester, Virginia, on September 19, 1864. Union Army Major General Philip Sheridan defeated Confederate Army Lieutenant General Jubal Early in one of the largest, bloodiest, and most important battles in the Shenandoah Valley. Among the 5,000 Union casualties were one general killed and three wounded. The casualty rate for the Confederates was high: about 4,000 of 15,500. Two Confederate generals were killed and four were wounded.

The stadium is also the home of the annual Gator Bowl, a post-season college bowl game. Additionally, the stadium hosted Super Bowl XXXIX in 2005 and is one of the venues used by the United States men's national soccer team.
From 1997 to 2006, the stadium was named Alltel Stadium after communications company Alltel purchased naming rights. The facility was renamed EverBank Field in 2010, following the approval of a five-year, naming rights deal with the financial services company EverBank. The agreement was extended in 2014 for an additional 10 years. The Jaguars announced in February 2018 the stadium would be renamed TIAA Bank Field for the 2018 NFL season after EverBank was acquired by New York-based TIAA.

USS Alabama (BB-60) is a retired battleship. She was the fourth and final member of the South Dakota class of fast battleships built for the United States Navy in the 1940s.
After entering service in 1942, the Alabama was deployed to protect convoys in the Atlantic Ocean. In 1943, she was transferred to the Pacific for operations against Japan, helping with the Gilbert and Marshall Islands campaign that began in November 1943. While operating in the Pacific, she served primarily as an escort for the fast carrier task force to protect the aircraft carriers from surface and air attacks. She also frequently bombarded Japanese positions in support of amphibious assaults. She took part in the Mariana and Palau Islands campaign from June–September and the Philippines campaign from October–December. After a refit in early 1945, she returned to the fleet for operations during the Battle of Okinawa and the series of attacks on the Japanese mainland in July and August, including several bombardments of coastal industrial targets.
The Alabama assisted in Operation Magic Carpet after the war, carrying some 700 men home from the former war zone. She was decommissioned in 1947 and assigned to the Pacific Reserve Fleet, where she remained until stricken from the Naval Vessel Register in 1962.
The USS Alabama was preserved as a memorial museum ship in Mobile Bay, AL.

USS Bremerton (SSN-698), a Los Angeles-class submarine, was the second vessel of the United States Navy to be named for Bremerton, WA. The contract to build her was awarded to the Electric Boat Division of General Dynamics Corporation in Groton, CT on 24 January 1972, and her keel was laid on 8 May 1976. She was launched on 22 July 1978 and commissioned on 28 March 1981.
When USS Los Angeles was decommissioned on 23 January 2010, Bremerton became the oldest commissioned submarine in the US fleet. On that day, Richard O'Kane's cribbage board was transferred from Los Angeles to Bremerton, a tradition that dates back to World War II.
On 20 July 2017, she became the longest-commissioned U.S. Navy submarine, at the time, surpassing USS Kamehameha (SSBN-642). On 6 April 2018, she returned to Pearl Harbor from her 16th and final deployment. When Bremerton was inactive in 2018, the cribbage board was transferred from Bremerton to USS Olympia (SSN-717).
On 20 April 2018, USS Bremerton left Pearl Harbor for the last time en route to Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremerton, WA to enter the submarine recycling program.
Bremerton was officially decommissioned on 21 May 2021, at the U.S. Naval Undersea Museum in Keyport, WA.

USS California (BB-44) was the second of two Tennessee-class battleships built for the United States Navy between her keel laying in October 1916 and her commissioning in August 1921. The Tennessee class was part of the standard series of twelve battleships built in the 1910s and 1920s, and were developments of the preceding New Mexico class. They were armed with a battery of twelve 14-inch (360 mm) guns in four three-gun turrets. California served as the flagship of the Battle Fleet in the Pacific Ocean for duration of her peacetime career. She spent the 1920s and 1930s participating in routine fleet training exercises, including the annual Fleet Problems, and cruises around the Americas and further abroad, such as a goodwill visit to Australia and New Zealand in 1925.
California was moored in Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941 when the Japanese attacked the port, bringing the United States into World War II. The ship was moderately damaged by a pair of torpedoes and a bomb, but a fire disabled the ship's electrical system, preventing the pumps from being used to keep the ship afloat. California slowly filled with water over the following three days and eventually sank. Her crew suffered heavy casualties in the attack and four men were awarded the Medal of Honor for their actions during the attack. She was raised in April 1942, repaired and heavily rebuilt, and returned to service in January 1944.
The ship thereafter supported the amphibious operations conducted during the Pacific War, including the Mariana and Palau Islands campaign (though she was damaged in a collision with Tennessee and thus missed the Battle of Peleliu) and the Philippines campaign, during which she took part in the Battle of Surigao Strait. She was hit by a kamikaze during the invasion of Lingayen Gulf in January 1945, after repairs, joined the fleet supporting troops fighting on Okinawa during the Battle of Okinawa. Her crew took part in the occupation of Japan after the end of the war, and after returning to the United States via the Indian and Atlantic Oceans, was laid up in Philadelphia in 1946. She remained in the fleet's inventory until 1959, when she was broken up for scrap.

USS Constitution, also known as Old Ironsides, three-masted heavy frigate of the United States Navy and the third of the six original frigates authorized for construction by the Naval Act of 1794. She is the world's oldest commissioned naval vessel still afloat. Constitution is most noted for her actions during the War of 1812 against the United Kingdom, when she captured numerous merchant ships and defeated five British warships: HMS Guerriere, Java, Pictou, Cyane, and Levant. The battle with Guerriere earned her the nickname "Old Ironsides" and public adoration that has repeatedly saved her from scrapping.
Today, Constitution's stated mission today is to promote understanding of the Navy's role in war and peace through educational outreach, historical demonstration, and active participation in public events as part of the Naval History & Heritage Command. As a fully commissioned Navy ship, her crew of 60 officers and sailors participate in ceremonies, educational programs, and special events while keeping her open to visitors year-round and providing free tours.

------------------------------------------------------------
USS Enterprise (CV-6) was a Yorktown-class carrier built for the United States Navy during the 1930s. She was the seventh U.S. Navy vessel of that name. Colloquially called "The Big E", she was the sixth aircraft carrier of the U.S. Navy. Launched in 1936, she was one of only three American carriers commissioned before World War II to survive the war (the others being Saratoga and Ranger). She participated in more major actions of the war against Japan than any other U.S. ship. These actions included the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Battle of Midway, the Battle of the Eastern Solomons, the Battle of the Santa Cruz Islands, the Guadalcanal Campaign, the Battle of the Philippine Sea, and the Battle of Leyte Gulf. Enterprise earned 20 battle stars, more than any other ship, and was the most decorated U.S. ship of World War II. She was also the first U.S. ship to sink a full-sized enemy warship after the Pacific War had been declared when her aircraft sank the Japanese submarine I-70 on 10 December 1941. On three occasions during the war, the Japanese announced that she had been sunk in battle, inspiring her nickname "The Grey Ghost". By the end of the war, her planes and guns had downed 911 enemy planes, sank 71 ships, and damaged or destroyed 192 more. Enterprise was decommissioned February 17, 1947 just after the end of World War II after just shy of nine years of service.
