Robert E. Lee, "Stonewall" Jackson, J.E.B. Stuart, James Longstreet, Johnston, etc. were TRAITORS because they had all taken an oath (made a vow) to defend and protect the Constitution of the United States. Their choices to rebel led to a bloodbath that resulted in the deaths of over a half a million Americans. Nothing honorable about that. George Washington was a colonial officer who had taken an oath to defend King and Country. The War of Independence was a rebellion that resulted in a successful secession. British Governor Lord Dunsmore granted emancipation to all slaves who remained loyal to Great Britain, in October 1775. Slave-owner Washington and his fellow Founding Fathers were traitors to England. The War resulted in a lot of bloodshed. I guess you won't find any honor there either, yankee.

The basis of the American Revolution was that "all men are created equal."
--Thomas Jefferson
The basis of the secessionist revolution is this:
"I am a plain, blunt-spoken man. We say that man has a right to property in man. We say that slaves are our property."
---Texas Senator Wigfall, 1860
