In this case, I'm not bashing the South. Braxton Bragg was an incompetent general who consistently pulled defeat out of the jaws of victory. Lloyd Fredendall was a physical coward who built a fortified headquarters 30 miles behind the front.

The only reason they named it after Bragg was because he was North Carolina's highest-rated Confederate General.

I'm not bashing the South...I'm bashing the Confederacy. The Confederate States was not some Jeffersonian Democracy- They had a poorly-formed Constitution, didn't have a manufacturing base, and towards the end the Home Guards' actions more closely resembled the SS's during the last days of the 3rd Reich.
