Forrest's soldiers loved him. His fellow generals admired him. His enemies were terrified at the mere mention of his name. Gen. Robert E. Lee said of his finest subordinate commanders, the most remarkable was one he "had never met" — Forrest. And U.S. and foreign military officers alike have studied Forrest’s campaigns over the decades since the end of the war. It has even been speculated that some aspects of the German Blitzkrieg were patterned after some of Forrest's operations.

Now you’ve done it. I predict the “i write to suit MYSELF” rant in 5...4...3...2...
in other words you are a KNOWING, intentional, LIAR and/or a FOOL.

it's no more complicated than this: you are a LIAR & the TRUTH is not in you.
your reputation is UNSAVORY at best & totally ruined for most people here on FR.

to all: also, it's "interesting" that "bubba, the LIAR" has told so many LIES, so many TIMES, that i cannot tell if he is ACTUALLY "heyworthLESS, the HATE-filled, ignorant BIGOT", as he said he used to be in post #281 OR if he's LYING about that, TOO.
that's what happens when you become "identified as a LIAR" = NOBODY believes ANYTHING that you say.

I don't know that the author of the book said that because neither I not anyone else who has looked can find evidence that the book even exists. I know that that's your claim, after everyone mocked your post saying that there's a captured U-boat in a Galveston park. If there was some evidence that the book actually exists (and a CL ad by someone with your family name doesn't count) you might begin to have a leg to stand on. I know that in the "Motor Boating and Sailing" article from 1970, no such claim is made.
Personally, I have to wonder why a book so wrong that it makes the absurd claim that there's a captured U-boat in a Galveston park would be so valuable. Then of course, there's your story about the court battle that was fought over the captured U-boat. For that one you cite newspaper stories. What about that one?
Then there's your story about that Thanksgiving outside El Paso"100+" years before the Pilgrims landed, and the story about United States soldiers burning down the synagoue in Alexandria years before the first synagogue was built there. What incorrect book did you get that information from?
So when I say that you’ve said these things, it isn’t true? Is that your position now? Because I can link to all the posts where you’ve made these ridiculous claims.
is there a forum for SERIAL LIARS, fools & BIGOTS??
if there is, i suggest you head over there & stay,as you'll be a STAR!

standwatie.com?
NOBODY (with the possible exception of "x" the hate-FILLED half-wit, perhaps) believes ANYTHING you now post .
instead you are just ridiculed & laughed AT, as an OBVIOUS fool/hater/LIAR.
free dixie,sw
...who never seem to post this opinion in an open forum, making them either cowards or figments of your imagination. I tend toward the latter.
Now when was that Thanksgiving again?
you will NOT be believed, as you are a KNOWN serial LIAR, whose "word of honor" is an oxymoron.
PITY, that you aren't bright enough to understand that rather simple concept. your reputation on FR is RUINED.

LIARS, FOOLS & BIGOTS alway think that they're PERFECT in every way & it's everyone/someone/anyone else's fault that they are RIDICULED, "made sport of" & snubbed.
btw, have you noticed that hardly anyone but me will post TO you??? (that in itself should, but probably does NOT, tell you something about how you are seen by others on this forum.)
laughing AT you, DUNCE.

What is your source that Forrest was ever demoted?
What is your source that he ordered the massacre of black soldiers?
Yeah, like when it was the fault of that Admiral Commodore guy when you claimed that there was a captured U-boat parked in a Galveston park, huh? Or when it was the fault of the UTEP history faculty when you claimed that the Spanish were celebrating Thanksgiving near El Paso "100+" years before the Pilgrims landed in 1620, right?
Well said.
perhaps you're to be PITIED, as you're OBVIOUSLY "out of touch" with REALITY.
(perhaps i shouldn't but) i just laugh AT your BIGOTRY, clueLESSness & obvious DISHONESTY.
the best tool to use against a LYING bigot is RIDICULE.

I agree with you there. Hence my presence here, fact-checking whenever you say something like that the US army burned down a synagogue in Alexandria, VA or that the Spanish celebrated Thanksgiving outside El Paso "100+" years before the Pilgrims landed in 1620.
I wish the political climate would allow men such as he to be in charge.
But where you gonna find someone like Gen. Forrest?
Never been anyone like him before or after.
Gen. Patton comes closest... (IMHO)
