  The Jug Bridge near Frederick, MD. The 11th US Infantry, along with the rest of the Fifth Corps, crossed this bridge on the morning of 29 June 1863, en route to Gettysburg. The fine structure of the bridge and peculiar jug-looking monument caused many soldiers to remark on it in diaries and letters.
