Description:
Cold Harbor Battlefield in Mechanicsville, VA, is a significant site from the American Civil War, known for one of its bloodiest and most decisive battles. Fought from May 31 to June 12, 1864, it was part of General Ulysses S. Grant's Overland Campaign against Confederate forces under General Robert E. Lee. The battle is particularly remembered for the devastating Union losses during an ill-fated assault on June 3, where thousands of soldiers fell in just under an hour.
