The entire complex is on the National Register of Historic Places. So not only do they have to restore these buildings, but they have to do it in a way that is architecturally of the period. What is interesting about the Soldiers' Home is that it was not the United States Government that created the home. It was the people of Leavenworth, KS. There were so many veterans wandering around this part of Kansas, homeless and destitute, many with very serious medical issues, that the good people of our community decided to build them a home to live out their days in relative dignity. The Home was run with military discipline, with daily formations, inspections, work parties dispatched to clean and maintain the campus and to raise food. It was like its own little city. The National Cemetary which Mary Ann's picture only showed a very small part of, was and still is one of two national cemetaries in the county. It is truly a special place.
