On September 9, 1862 Confederate General Robert E. Lee issued Special Order 191 delineating the movement of the Army of Northern Virginia into Maryland. The discovery of this order, wrapped around three cigars, led to the bloodiest day in American history. Meet at the Lincoln Memorial. Contact Garrett Radke at 202-233-3520.
