14th Internments: 1856 - 1952
STONES:
WHERE DRAGONS LAY
By Robert Wilson

Stones are much more than the place where dragons lay. They tell the story of previously
anonymous men of the 14th Infantry who did their final duty as members of the regiment,
or who wished to be remembered as members of the regiment.

The National Cemeteries at San Francisco and Los Angeles provide the final resting-place
for most of them. These two cemeteries are important for more than that. They tell two
different stories about two different times in the regiment's history.

SAN FRANCISCO	LOS ANGELES
FT. GEORGE WRIGHT, SPOKANE, WA.	FT. BAYARD, NEW MEXICO
FT. DOUGLAS, UTAH	PRESCOTT , ARIZONA
FORT McPHERSON, NEBRASKA	PROSPECT HILL, VERMONT
KEOKUK NATIONAL CEMETARY, IOWA	14th INFANTRYMEN INTERMENT, MARYLAND

It is hoped that by bringing these men out from anonymity, they will live on in regimental history as soldiers who did
their duty, even through death. We continue to search for the untold thousands of former 14^th Infantrymen
who still lie in anonymity. Robert H Wilson
