The 8th Ohio monument at the Sunken Road. “During the entire engagement my officers and men behaved with the utmost bravery and gallantry; not a man gave way,” wrote Lt. Col. Franklin Sawyer, 8th Ohio commander, in his official report. “Our colors received 17 balls, but were never once depressed during the storm of battle.” The base of the monument reads: “On this field, Ohio’s sons sacrificed life and health for one country and one flag.” (U.S. Army National Guard photo by Sgt. 1st Class Joshua Mann, Ohio National Guard historian)
