The War Rages On…

Seems as if someone in Shockoe Bottom found some unexploded Yankee ordinance this evening:

The discovery of what may have been an unexploded Civil War-era shell at a construction site prompted police to block off Richmond’s Shockoe Bottom area tonight and call a bomb squad.

Now I could be completely off, but my youngest brother works on a similar project in Downtown Richmond… any first-hand accounts?

Regardless, stories of leftover ordinance remind me of stories in Fredericksburg of unexploded ordinance being found after a good storm or something. After all, two years of the war was fought there….
