” Sherman’s two armies “, who burned, raped, pillaged, and murdered their way through the South.

Yes, a glorious spectacle for The New York Times.

Thanks for everything you do on Free Republic.
As I remember, WWII ended on a much more upbeat note.

Good luck, Homer.

Any plans for future projects?

I have to again tell you these threads of daily news were quite something to behold. These are actual real history being made live, again.

Thank you for your work.
