AP columnist Hal Boyle muses on Memorial Day as the last Civil War veterans fade. He notes a magazine count of 30 Union and 38 Confederate survivors, the lingering costs of the war in lives and pensions, and the broader view of a reunited nation healing from a distant family feud. The piece ponders enduring memory, regional scars, and the evolving meaning of national unity.
