A group of Dragoons from the Sons of Confederate Veterans Camp 1524 assisted with moving a number of Confederate grave markers which had been procured for placement at Confederate Circle in Selma's Old Live Oak Cemetery. The pallet full of granite markers was loaded at a business in Valley Grande and hauled by trailer to Pat Godwin's Ft. Dixie in Selma where they were offloaded by hand and stacked for storage til spots are prepared and they can be placed at graves of Confederate soldiers in the cemetery in Selma. Camp Commander Harold Grooms, Comms Officer Doug Butler and his father-in-law and compatriots Philip Edwards and Stuart Waldo participated in the activity. Doug's father-in-law provided the truck and trailer which made the move from Valley Grande to Selma much easier. Pat was appreciative of the work and after the work was complete, everyone relaxed under the shade of the tree and shared recollections and stories.
