Re: Fort Pillow
In Response To: Fort Pillow ()

The most important evidence against the prosecutors of General Forrest, against the stories of a massacre, is the very first Union report of the action written within, I believe, two days after the action. That Union officer made absolutely no mention of mistreatment or misconduct by the Confederates, he said it was a fair fight.
