Sherman won just like we defeated Germany and Japan.

Total war works, period.

Nah, the entire South was too busy defending Richmond to help themselves.

Yep. Anyone who doesn’t like war really should start one.

If Germany had never bombed Pearl Harbor we probably would not have involved ourselves until Europe had been totally dominated by Nazi Germany.

But, we’re Americans. We love a good fight and “Never Give Up”.

When I was a boy driving through the South, you could still see those charred chimneys standing alone - Sherman’s Sentinels.

I agree. General Sherman was given a task to carry out and he did it. Anyone caring to criticize what happened should direct that to the man who gave the order.
