Jameson, the fact remains that the Union did not run their troops or it's officers up the ole Yard arm. To verify this I suggest you read the OR's about Colonel Ivan Turchinov (Turchin)at Athens, Alabama. He was relieved of command and then re-instated six months later. Not exactly a hanging if you ask me....
I've got two strikes against me Jameson, I'm a Yeller Dawg Democrat and A Southerner!!!!
