Antietam was the single bloodiest day in American history. After the smoke cleared from the battlefield, the dead of September 17th were buried in hastily dug graves as the soldiers who survived moved on. But the dead of the battle couldn't just stay in those temporary graves. So where did they end up? That's the question that we're exploring in this episode.
