LOL yeah realism at its finest.
Well I do like to give credit where it is due so ...
CG has helped my understand my ancestor a bit better.
Three times he returned home during the War of Secession (once on leave and twice paroled by the enemy) and when family asked him how the war was progressing his reply was ...
We are doomed. We will fight to the bitter end but we, sadly, will not prevail.
How can we when every soldier, from Junior Officer on down, knows that the tactics of last century cause slaughter and defeat but Higher Command is entrenched in their delusion that "it will work the next time"?
Thanks guys.
