In
the spirit of Decoration Day, or Memorial Day, a few dedicated and hard working
Dragoons came to complete the clean up of Indian Hill on Saturday May 26, 2018. We owe a huge
Thank You to Harold Grooms, Bill Myrick, Skip Ward and Conner Lee. They did
their duty to improve the final resting place of five Confederate veterans and
possibly veterans of other wars. Most likely the holiday weekend and threat of
bad weather kept some men away from this community project on this weekend. Compatriot Will Dismukes came
to the cemetery during the week to work when he was available. Pictured below are 1st Lt Harold Grooms, Quartermaster Bill Myrick and compatriot Skip Ward (with Connor lee not pictured). Note how good the cemetery looks in the background after the work was completed. There were two casualties reported, the first Bill Myrick's lawnmower when he hit a stump and damaged his blade and the second a carpet bagging copperhead which was dispatched when it hindered the effort.
