Governor Bob McDonnell - May 2010
Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell speaking at the May 2010 dedication of the 85-acre Wagner Tract at the Chancellorsville Battlefield. After this speech, Gov. McDonnell presented a check to the Civil War Trust to help offset some of the expense of acquiring this key section of the Chancellorsville battlefield - land where Stonewall Jackson's forces attacked the Union right on May 2, 1863.
