Friend to Friend Masonic Memorial, Bronze monument in Gettysburg Battlefield Historic District, United States.
The memorial features two life-sized figures depicting Union Captain Bingham providing assistance to wounded Confederate General Armistead during the Battle of Gettysburg.
During Pickett's Charge on July 3, 1863, General Armistead transferred his personal belongings to Captain Bingham while requesting delivery to his friend General Hancock.
The memorial stands as a testament to the bonds between Freemasons from both Union and Confederate forces during the American Civil War.
Located at the intersection of Steinwehr Avenue and Taneytown Road, the memorial includes a surrounding wall listing states whose soldiers fought at Gettysburg.
The bronze figures display precise details including Bingham's spectacles, Armistead's brigadier general sleeve braid, and the Masonic compass symbol on the watch chain.
