Cheney to help mark Ga. battle's anniversary

Vice President Dick Cheney will help commemorate the 145th anniversary of the Battle of Chickamauga this week.

Cheney will deliver remarks Friday at the event in Northwestern Georgia near Chattanooga, Tenn., as organizers begin a three-day re-enactment of the 1863 battle.

Chickamauga was the site of the Civil War's second-bloodiest battle and the South's last major victory.
