WRONG!!!
Not commensurate with U.S. history.
The Civil War was a crucial part of our history, like it or not.
Had I lived in a different time and place, I would have been a Civil War reenactor. It was the bloodiest war in our history. And it is something I feel really close to. I may have been a soldier back then.
We cannot ever forget that.
On my honeymoon, my husband and I stayed at a former Civil War hospital; it was said to be haunted. We never heard anything, though. I do believe in reincarnation. Sorry, all.
Where do many of today’s service folk hail from? The Southern states. Tear down the monuments, outlaw the flag and the folks now saying even the American flag has no meaning so kneel during the anthem. May be better served to let the blue states do some of the heavy lifting these days. Don’t know if I would do five years on a naval warship these days.
