re: #182 Dark_Falcon
Yes he did. Forrest was a proponent of total war, and of using irregulars to create mayhem too. One of his most famous sayings was to call for “war to the knife, and the knife to the hilt.” This meant war with no quarter asked for or given; a war to the death.
The US Army has a Ft Lee, Ft Hood, Ft Benning. Ft Polk, Ft. Jackson, Ft Bragg, and Ft AP Hill. It does not have a Ft Forrest.
