| Gettysburg National Cemetery |
In the Gettysburg Address, Lincoln says that it is proper that a portion of the battlefield is dedicated as the final resting place of soldiers who fought in the Civil War. But, Lincoln says they cannot merely dedicate the ground - they must also devote themselves to the cause the people that will rest in that field fought for. These soldiers should not die in vain, but as the people who allowed America to be reborn, with greater freedom.

This address is reminiscent of war memorials across America. These memorials honor fallen soldiers in war who fought so their country could have the freedoms its people enjoy.
