Date: 13/12/2020

This is the last stop of the tour, covering the final actions of the Irish Brigade at the Battle of Fredericksburg. This battle would mean the end for the Irish Brigade as a fighting unit. What the shattered brigade left behind is a legacy that helped secure a place in a new America for themselves, their families, and the Irish throughout the Union.
