Georgia Division Commander Tim Pilgrim indicated that this was the (5) fifth Bronze Confederate Soldier Monument that the Sons of Confederate Veterans organization has placed in Georgia in the last 10 years. He stated that when these woke Municipalities and Counties illegally take down our Georgia Veteran Monuments not only do we file a lawsuit against them we also look for new locations to erect new monuments to honor Georgia's Confederate Veterans. The memories of our Southern Heroes will not be eased, they will always be remembered for their valor and sacrifices.
