"generally accepted facts" include items like the dates of major battles, the main "players" in those engagements, the locations of those battles, etc.

ONE of the OBVIOUS things that heyworth doesn't know is that LTC John S. Mosby was NOT the commander of CSA forces at the battle of Ft Pillow. (as i'm sure you are aware, Nate Forrest was the CG for our side).

heyworth has since said (NUMEROUS times) that he was "just confused". more likely he did NOT know & is now trying DESPERATELY to cover up his ignorance of BASIC FACTS.

John Singleton Mosby was a piece of work. He pissed off the Union for guerrilla activity as a "partisan ranger," then pissed off the south after the war for politically supporting Grant in 1868 and 1872.

Nathan Bedford Forrest's post-war activities were apparently more to the liking of the hardcore rebs.
