Shiloh. Antietam. Cold Harbor. Franklin. Most people have no idea how terrible these battles were.
I think Antietam still holds the record for most American soldiers killed in one day.
I hope that I would not be a lily-livered coward if push
comes to shove & war becomes inevitable. - My dad was a
combat veteran of WWII - N. Africa, Italy, & finally
Germany. - I don’t romanticize war; but in a way, I guess
that’s best as the killing is bloody & it is real.
