Re: pig sticker tie down?
In his book "Yankee Tigers", Ralsa Rice describes entering Franklin, TN, in 1862, on the skirmish line. He waded the Harpeth River and found the opposite bank too steep to climb. He stuck his NCO sword into the river bank and used it as a step and left it there. He later reported it "lost on the field of battle".
I often wonder where Rice crossed the Harpeth. I bet that sword is still there.
