JOIN US AT THE UNVEILING OF THE HISTORICAL MARKER COMMEMORATING THE BATTLE OF CHIRICAHUA PASS
Saturday, February 19, 2022, at 2:00 pm
at the Chiricahua Desert Museum
Highway 80, north of Rodeo, NM
The October 1869 Battle of Chiricahua Pass near Rucker Canyon was fought between Captain Rueben Bernard and about 60 soldiers, and Cochise and about 100 Apache warriors. It holds the record for more army soldiers being issued the Medal of Honor than in any 1-day battle in the entire history of the US Army. Amazingly, no marker or monument has ever commemorated this unique record. Until now.
Join us as we unveil the plaque and listen to remarks from our state elected leaders as well as representatives from the Chiricahua Apache Nation. A power point detailing the history of the battle will follow the unveiling. The event will conclude with a reception where refreshments will be served.
Sponsored by the Cochise County Historical Society
