Stop the desecration of the body of Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest and his wife from their 110 year resting place.
Forrest was a businessman who become wealthy in the cotton trade prior to the Civil War. He abandoned that to fight federal forces once the war commenced, eventually becoming a lieutenant general in the Confederate Army. He was known for waging brutal warfare against federal forces in Mississippi and Tennessee.
These soldiers gravesites deserve federal historic protection.
