That's correct, but there are more named items in the picture.

The building has Jackson's name on it.
Can't see what the plaque says or what the cannon's represent? What other items are you referring to?
Jackson taught there early in his career

Yes, you are right about the statue but there are other named things in the picture. If you don't know go ahead and Google it as it is very interesting history.
Let me leave it up for a while to see if anyone else knows.

I may be wrong but I think the artillery pieces may be those that were named after the gospels. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
Yes, and that just leaves the building to be named.
Nope.
I'm gonna give it a few more than call it.
The building is the Old barracks at VMI. The original was burned during the War by the Yanks. This building was reconstructed on the original plans just after the war and still serves its same purpose today. A couple of more barracks buildings have been added to it over the years.

I apologize for not getting back. John Reagan is the fellows name. He did a great job.
Busy, my friend? That cabin aught to be totally decorated by now. LOL

I'm at camp now Mr. Jim. Cabin is getting there. Saw a bear today, woo hoo.
Congratulations. We have none in my part of the world except that very rarely a young male will ramble through looking for a territory he can call his own.

From Dalton and Resaca southward this Gen Officer's lines were said to be broken repeatedly while all the other Rebs lines stood tall. Seasoned Confederate troops confident and itching to get a yankee in the open to whip him, only to get the order to fall back, again and again.
Who's to blame?

General Joseph Johnston is blamed for that. We know now that he couldn’t have repelled the invaders. He saved many a good mans life by retreating. Many of whom were sacrificed by a delusional officer who replaced Joe Johnston.
