9B is UNKNOWN NO MORE
In the fall of 2022, an unknown soldier known only as 9B was exhumed from a mass grave containing the remains of five Continental soldiers killed at the Battle of Camden. On Sunday, August 13, 2023, the last Sunday before the 243rd anniversary of the battle, 9B was reinterred with full honors.
