Park rangers and living historians from Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park will present artillery firing demonstrations inside Point Park, part of Lookout Mountain Battlefield.

For the gray-clad members of Captain James Garrity’s Alabama Battery, their duty on Lookout Mountain was a miserable experience during the days before the November battle. A pre-war artillery militia company from Mobile, known as the Continental Artillery in a nod to the veterans of the American Revolution, they were, by 1863, the veterans of their own war. Join us this Memorial Day to hear about these men and their actions “above the clouds.”
