I learned that famous phrase was the Virgina motto watching “The Conspiritor” the other day.
There was some good dialogue in the “True Grit” remake between Cogburn and Labeouf about their service in the CSA, but you had to know some history about it and names like Quantrill to understand it.
Can you tell me why Lee’s army was called the Army of “Northern” Virgina?
“The name Army of Northern Virginia referred to its primary area of operation, as did most Confederate States Army names at the time.”
