Mr. Wilson,

This is potentially Lookout Mountain or Missionary Ridge (north end) and yes it was taken a "few" years ago. I would guess in the 1950's. If you notice the plaque to the right of the cannon it says Capt. W and then Stevenson's below that. This would likely be Carnes' Tennessee Battery., Capt. William W. Carnes commanding, Stevenson's Division was I believe on Lookout Mountain and then displaced to Missionary Ridge.

I hope this helps.

Respectfully,
