– William Tecumseh Sherman

The Forgotten Veteran Week at TechnoChitlins
“It is well that war is so terrible, or we would grow too fond of it.”
Doing something different. In these times, it is politically incorrect to recall a certain class of Veterans, those who served for the Confederacy in the U.S. Civil War. This is my small remembrance of these men, who are a part of my heritage, regardless of how the political winds blow.
It’s Memorial Day. Remember all of them. In a lost and wrong-headed cause, they gave their all.
