Army of the Cumberland

June 27, 1863

The Reserve Corps (Granger) moved south along this road, screened by the Army's Cavalry (D.S. Stanley). Taking Guy's Gap, against minor resistance, they pushed rapidly into Shelbyville, evacuated the same morning by the Corps of Maj. Gen. Leonidas Polk, which withdrew to Tullahoma.

Marker is on Shelbyville Highway (Tennessee Route 231), on the left when traveling south.
