B.L. Wynn

Sargent B.L. Wynn was in charge of a Confederate signals station atop of Clark's Mountain during the winter of 1863/64. General Robert E. Lee was frequent visitor since the summit had an excellent view of the encampments of Army of the Potomac which allowed the general to study their formations and activities. On May 2, 1864 Wynn casually came out of the signals hut to great Lee and was surprised to find most of the top ranking officers of the Army there too for a conference.
