Well, they were able to kill quite a bit of yellow bellied mercenaries from up North. About a 2 for 1 kill rate if I recall. Of course, SC still has one of the highest miliary participation rates in the country. How does your beloved North compare again?

You recall wrong. Union battle deaths were about 110,000 while confederate battle deaths were about 94,000. Nowhere near 2:1, but accuracy has never been the Southron hallmark.

I'd say very well.
