“Sir what are we to do about these men(class president referring to the other VMI seniors/cadets who were going north), they are our bretheren ?? Kill them sir, kill them all, they are the ENEMY !!” - Stonewall Jackson on leaving the VMI just after Fort Sumpter fell
Along with so many FReepers from the north, I usually say nothing when this anti-American crap is flung about here on a regular basis.
Tonight, though, I’m so sorry to inform you that we, too, are Americans.
So take your silly separatist, anti-American crap and cram it up your Obama-like divisive southern pride.
God Bless America—not the confederacy, not the union—AMERICA.”
What the Hell is this about??
The Norwich boys whooped up on the VMI and Citadel boys pretty bad. Stonewall should have stayed there another semester and taught them a little better.
(Kind of kidding...a little inter mil-school rivalry humor.)
