Many Americans died in this war, more than all other wars combined. After the war, on May 30, 1868, in order to heal the nation, flowers were put on the graves of both sides of the war. Later it was expanded to be a remembrance of all those who died fighting the nation's battles.

Laramie Movie Scope: Gettysburg and Stories of Valor Lesser-known Civil War tales by Robert Roten , Film Critic August 3, 2004 A new civil war documentary will be released on DVD on August 31, 2004, called “Gettysburg and Stories of Valor.” This is a reveiw of an advance copy of the two-DVD set. This is mainly for people who are seriously interested in the history of the civil war, particularly the battle of Gettysburg. Any Civil War documentary, of course, begs comparison with the greatest documentary of them all, Ken Burns' nine-part documentary on the Civil War, originally broadcast on PBS. This latest documentary falls far short of Burns' epic, but it does cover a lot of information not covered in the Burns documentary. It also covers a lot of material not covered in major motion pictures about the war, such as “Glory,” “Gettysburg” and “Gods and Generals.” While the documentary is informative, it is not nearly as entertaining or as compelling as the Burns civil war documentary for several reasons. The documentary, part of “The Minutes of History” (TM) series, by Inecom Entertainment Company, is narrated by well-known actor Keith Carradine (“Nashville”). While Carradine's unctuous voice is not exactly a monotone, his delivery is flat enough to put you to sleep, and the text of the narration is stiff and formal. The first disk of the two-disk set is mainly about Gettysburg, while the second disk skips around to different battles during the war, and certain events after the war. Such diverse topics as medical care, clothing, battlefield photography, and Civil War veteran's organizations like the Grand Army of the Republic (north) and the United Confederate Veterans are discussed. Each chapter on the DVD is on a different topic, and the events depicted are not presented in chronological order. The topics are not unrelated, but there is little thematic continuity from one chapter to the next.
