In Response To: Re: Sharpshooters ()

Thank you Edward.

There is a certain romanticism about being shot at the crucial moment by a sharpshooter than by the blind squirrel who happens to be lucky. Thus, the Civil War writer/soldier is likely to use "sharpshooter" instead of "lucky fool."

If you know anyone who belongs to The Company of Military Historians, ask to see my article on Confederate Sharp Shooter Selection and how "select" men were selected.
