Hey James, most of the people who post here have something to contribute, some historical information once in awhile. No doubt, many just lurk and gleam the information they find useful. Then, there are a few, like yourself and the two gentlemen who chimed in with you, who only come here to stir the pot. Why don't you find out how many United States soldiers it took to burn down Dover, Tennessee, or kidnap the women of Roswell, Georgia or murder Confederate prisoners at Ft. Blakely, Alabama? If you were genuinely interested in Civil War history, then you would have taken Dennis' advise.
