Someone needs to call Marcelus Wallace (Ving Rhames character in Pulp Fiction) to deal with these schmucks:
"I'ma call a coupla hard, pipe-hittin' (fellas) who'll go to work on the homes here with a pair of pliers and a blow torch. .... I'm gonna get medieval on your ass."

Isn't the desire for forgiveness repentance supposed to come into play somewhere in the picture? Else there is the divine wrath?..or we could forgive them.
Since the damage may be unfixable, I say no forgiveness.

PS: That's a good book, Chris. More Americans should read it and get over their invisible man delusions.

That picture looks familiar, Scott. I've seen that face somewhere before.
If law enforcement wants to catch the vandals the first place they need to look closely at is the Gettysburg College frat houses. They will probably find the bronze head of the 4th New York Independent Battery statue there too along with a lot of other missing pieces of monuments.

Cameras, cameras, cameras. Unless you travel on foot there are a limited number of ways to enter the various sections of the park. I would think cameras at or near KEY entry and exit points would do. I'm sure state of the art equipment would cost big $$$, but what will it cost to replace or repair the damage done in the past few years? Maybe the Gettysburg Foundation could foot some or all of the bill. To say it was this person or that is just speculation, getting those responsible on camera would be a far from the evidence they have to work with now. ~Gary
There's that! Render unto Ceasar. It's "fun" to concoct punishment for the vandals but let's not project our darkest fantasies.
