[Sherman was loud. He was often petty, and certainly ready in a heartbeat to engage in frequent feuds, many of them cul de sacs and counter-productive.]
Reminds me of a WW2 General too.
The WWII general did not use the military to attack fellow Americans, to pit brother against brother and family against each other. There is a difference.
Prior to Sherman's march, civilized countries fought outside civilian centers, sparing non-combatants. After Sherman, non-combatants became hostages.
Seoul is currently being held hostage by Little Rocket Man and most of the rest of us are being held hostage by the threat of nuclear war.
