“Sherman’s army, raped and killed every man woman and child they caught,”
Can you substantiate that comment?
VDH and others incorrectly assume Sherman was fighting a "war for equality"
"The Union army's embrace of the slaves, their angry shooting of the bloodhounds used to track escapees, their physical destruction of the plantation infrastructure, their psychological humiliation of the plantation class--all this helped to shatter both the material and psychological foundations of an oppressive aristocratic state."

As I said the rape and killing of women men and boys, both black and white, and little old ladies, in a match to the sea, would have done Alida the Hun proud.
