First time I’ve heard the word “massive” used to describe the few scarecrows that decided not to carry on as guerillas and surrendered that day. Weren’t there only 20,000 left ?

Those scarecrows fought those "preservationists" to a stand still for four years.. Not bad for a third world army.

Actually, the soldiers from NC ans SC wera allowed to leave the A of No. Va. That is why Petersburg fell.
