The “Battlefield Cross” has been known by many names: the Fallen Soldier Cross, the Battle Cross, or Soldier’s Cross. The origin of the modern battlefield cross has roots in the American Civil War. After the conclusion of battle, soldiers would place their fallen comrades’ rifles, with bayonets fixed, into the ground. This was done to help in the burial process, serving as a marker for gravediggers. It also served as a way to memorialize friends that were lost in battle.
