David, The last General standing is the winning General. The Confederacy did = have some great military minds, Lee being the best, but Grant and his offic= ers eventually proved through ability and resources that they were part of = the superior army. Down South the Civil War is known as the Battle to Pres= erve State Rights and up North it is known as the Battle for the Preservati= on of the Union. If any of you are at a convention where EAC Dealer Steve = Ellsworth (nice guy) has a table, he always enjoys good discussions about t= he Civil War. He has some nice colonials too.=20=20 David, I'm still waiting for your Troop to camp at Quail Hill Scout Res= ervation and do the Battle of Monmouth Hike. It's close enough where I mig= ht be able to join you at your campfire...

Ray, There is Fort A.P. HILL where the National Boy Scout jamboree is hal= d every 4 years. I believe he as well as Jackson were "winning" generals, f= or years, just didn't end up winning. David

Robert, I remember Tank Hill well. Our unit was Charlie -1-1. I learned a l= ot in those 8 weeks. Then off to Benning and Gordon. Were all these Forts named after Confederate Generals?

Ray, I went through FT Jackson also; 'Tank Hill.' I think they bulldozed th= em down for the newer units, the ones with 'air conditioning' and bigger latrines (instead of the one shower per 60 soldiers). Fun was. Robert Laviana
