  • John Cook Was a Diminutive 4 Feet 9 Inches Tall Upon His Enlistment at the Age of 14 on June 7, 1861
    Photo courtesy of G. Dodge John Cook was a diminutive 4 feet 9 inches tall upon his enlistment at the age of 14 on June 7, 1861. He was born on August 10, 1846 in Cincinnati, Ohio. Before the war he was a laborer. At the Battle of Antietam, the young bugler was awarded the Medal of Honor for serving the guns. See story on page 25 . 6 ARLINGTON HISTORICAL MAGAZINE The Civil War Medal of Honor Recipients of Arlington National Cemetery BY GEORGE w. DODGE Medal of Honor recipients did not initially hold Arlington National Cemetery in high regard since it originated as a potter's field during the Civil War on May 13, 1864. Over 5,000 soldiers were interred within a year. 1 After the war, the remains of several thousand soldiers within a cir­ cuit of fifty miles from Washington were disinterred and reinterred in Ar­ lington. Many were unknown. It would take the burials of distinguished high-ranking officers to begin to alter the perception of Arlington Burial Grounds as a potter's field. When General Philip H. Sheridan died on August 5, 1888 at Nonquitt, Massachusetts, he held the highest ranking position in the U.S. armed forces. Sheridan is popularly regarded as one of the three most prominent Union gen­ erals from the Civil War, along with Ulysses S. Grant and William T. Sherman.2 Sheridan's burial in front of the main entrance of Arlington House ushered in an era in which interment at Arlington was desirable. A series of interments of major generals and an admiral followed Sheridan's burial: General George Crook 1890 Admiral David Porter 1891 General Montgomery Meigs 1892 General Abner Doubleday 1893 General Stephen Burbridge 1894 General Walter Gresham 1895 General John Gibbon 1896 General John Mason 1897 General William Rosecrans 1898 General Horatio Wright 1899 The next sequence which gradually increased the status of Arlington Na­ tional Cemetery was the series of interments of 95 Civil War Mydal of Honor recipients.

Today, Washington’s Civil War forts are almost Wone hundred and fifty years old and when extant, barely visible. The earthwork forts, whose trenches Dickinson captured in his Fort Barnard drawing, are far softer mounds today, almost indistinguishable from their surrounding landscape, and in the case of Fort Barnard, nothing remains at all. It became a public park and playground at the intersection of today’s South Pollard Street and Walter Reed Drive in Arlington. Fort Ward, on the other hand, became a City of Alexandria historic site, and as a result, is the only fort with exten- sive reconstruction and a museum with interpretive programs.
