Gettysburg's 3 days in July, 1863 yielded 50,000 casualties and proved to be the signal to the South of it's impending defeat. One battlefield was The Wheat Field where 4,000 lay dead and the hogs from the neighbouring farmer broke from their pens and began to devour the dead bodies.

gold field ripened blood flowin' red bullets and bayonets buzzin' round their heads brother 'gainst brother together they died in the Devil's Den & The RoundTop you could hear the angels cry hogs in the wheatfield, no one has survived hogs in the wheatfield, no one is recognized 4,000 brothers, 4,000 sons 2000 wailing widows 4,000 silent guns canisters are bursting from the cannons Napoleon snouts hidden so deeply in the woods all about hogs in the wheatfield, no one has survived hogs in the wheatfield, no one is recognized scores are settled, decrees are signed crosses and statues are all in a line though 50,000 footsteps fell silent on that day, look out, the hogs in the wheatfield won't ever go away hogs in the wheatfield, no one has survived hogs in the wheatfield, no one is recognized x
