[MBB1984]

Lee was a wonderful man. He always was a dedicated man of valor. His service for the USA in the Mexican War was spectacular. I remember reading as a child of Lee hiding behind enemy lines while Mexican officers discussed battle plans, plans which Lee overheard and later reported to his superiors. Lee similarly served the Confederacy with unusual distinction, honor and valor. We need more men like Robert E. Lee.

The US government confiscated Lee's property. He was never reimbursed for it. The plantation he owned was taken and turned into what is now one of our country's shrines....Arlington National Cemetery.
