Lets not forget those that fought in watrs some of you may have disagreed with, but nonetheless died for what they believed.

I always find it funny people think the civil war was ONLY about slavery, when even the whites that liostened to Abe give his last speech vowed to kill him becuase he was 'to free the niggers'
That war wasnt just about slavery.
So in the name of my own bloodline that fought and died.
Salud.

ditto fletch, I had 1 great grandfather and 2 uncles (that I know of) fought for the 3rd mississippi(again I think that's the correct unit) both uncles died in tenn and my GF walked back to miss from va after the war......They were all HEROS on both sides
