re: #104 pre-Boomer Marine brat

I agree 100% with a “Civil War History Month”. We can honor the courage of individuals without implying (in today’s polarized environment) anything else.

Hell in a borderish state like Virginia there would even be soliders there who fought for the Union, I know that my home state (Maryland) had people who fought both ways, there’s even a famous statue at Antietam (I think) of a wounded confederate solider and a wounded union solider helping one another….
