While I appreciate that Biden is recognizing the acts of Republicans, there is something a little bit off about soldiers dressed in civilian clothing committing acts of sabotage behind enemy lines.

There were brave acts by Confederate soldiers. Will they get any honors?

Weird Congressional Medal of Honor Award now. (The original raiders WERE ALREADY AWARDED numerous Medals of Honor! )

Adding these guys now is just political.

Spies have been executed forever. One side’s hero is the other side’s infiltrator. Confederate spies didn’t get medals, ‘cause they lost.

I wonder if the author is writing this article in honor of his great-great-great grandfather? Same name.

I did not realize that spies could be awarded a MOH? They were in civilian clothing.

These men deserved it. What they did was incredibly dangerous, incredibly brave, they were hanged by the Confederates and faced that with more bravery than most can imagine.

I had to check to see if this was a true story. It could have been made up along with everything else from this regime.

Hell it could STILL be made up. Wikipedia can be pretty useful at implanting false information.

Hanged as spies.

You take off your uniform and pretend to be a civilian, you are rightly considered a spy.
