A Civil War soldier who died more than 160 years ago in Prince William County has been given a final resting place. He was laid to rest with full military funeral honors at Arlington National Cemetery on Nov. 4. “We gather to honor an unknown soldier whose life story is not fully known to history, yet whose sacrifice is fully worthy of the nation’s gratitude,” Chaplain Capt. Phil Morlock said while leading the ceremony. “We know that he answered a call greater than himself. We know that he stood in a time when the nation was tested by fire.” In March 2024, archaeologists discovered the soldier’s remains at Manassas National Battlefield Park at the site of a Civil War field hospital. His identity is unknown, but forensic analysis shows he was around 16 to 19 years old. The Union infantryman died during the Second Battle of Manassas in 1862. “As I watched that ceremony today, I felt it very hard not to cry,” said David Duncan, president of the American Battlefield
