>>Sherman and Grant should have been court martialed for making war on non-combatants and hung.<<

Agree. For decades, we've been fed the revisionist take on the war of Northern aggression.

Sherman in today's America would have been labeled a fascist, bigot, racist, Nazi.

Now, here we are. Warshington D.C. and the whole cabal screwing up our nation.

In 1944 he would have commanded 3rd army in Europe.

What, against the Slave Power South?

Today's Left would think the Confederacy--not Sherman--worse than Nazis.

He'd be as welcome a war hero among them as Zukov was by the Soviets.

Well someone's been fed the revisionist take, that's for sure.

Hitler cited Sherman's tactics when criticized about the blitzkrieg.
