Camp Moore was the largest Confederate training camp in Louisiana and the only Confederate training camp still open to the public. It is located on U. S. Highway 51 in Tangipahoa, LA. Me and Mrs. Fury took a ride up ol' Hiway 51 yesterday to see it.

Jeeves, I see you figured out the downward-pointing hand, the clouds around the wrist were a good clue. Also note the square and compass in the background of the relief.
