Civil War South- Welcome To Fort Bragg Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

blackbolt729: Seeing as how I have verbal confirmation of the cache not being where it was last seen, I am quite confident it is not there anymore. Based on the fact that the whole series will be archived 3 weeks from now, I see no point in placing another container to be muggled again.

The clue that was in this cache to finish the whole series is B=876

Braxton Bragg was born 3/27/1817 in Warrenton, North Carolina. As many other civil war commanders he was also a career US Army officer. He attended West Point and did very well in academics due to his superior memory for textbooks and classes. He received disciplinary demerits at a rate faster than his other West Point classmates. He graduated 5th out of 50 cadets of the West Point Class of 1837. During the Civil War Bragg mainly focused on the defense of areas south and west of Richmond, VA. After the war he was employed by the city of Mobile, Alabama to improve their river, harbor and bay areas. Bragg's last day of life was when he was walking down the streets of Galveston, Texas where he fell to the ground unconscious infront of a drugstore. He was dragged into the drugstore were he was soon pronouced dead. Many believe he died of a brain problem. He was buried in Magnolia Cemetery located in Mobile, Alabama.
