Hope he’s in the hottest ring in hell
Well sure, if you empty the New York prisons of every rapist and murderer you can find, collect them all together, and set them loose on a civilian population you can indeed “make them howl”.
The man built an army of criminals and set them loose on women and children. The only one worse than Sherman was Sherman’s wife. She literally called for genocide of all southern people in her letters to him.
WE HAVEN’T FORGOTTEN!
One of America’s greatest generals.
I have a really hard time being happy or feeling victorious about an American general burning down American cities.
Most all of the troops in Savannah were gone by Jan 25, 1865. Shortly after they left, a Ammo dump exploded on the west side of town and burned more than 100 homes. It is not known if it was a Union Action, Confederate Action, or, just an unfortunate accident. I tend to lean towards the unfortunate accident myself.
I had not heard of the fire until I was grown, but, always wondered why that side of town had no old buildings in it. Up until the 70s it was just old warehouses, and, a few businesses. The area changed a LOT over the years.
