All this neo-Confederate stuff is about more than remembering history. There are plenty of avid WWII buffs who manage to be students of history without passing resolutions to honor the Third Reich.

Yes, but the Civil War battlefields are here; the WWII battlefields are not, and that plays into it, I think.

There are folks who for some reason I cannot personally fathom enjoy dressing up in the costumes and going out and camping in the way soldiers did then, etc etc etc.

Again I don’t personally get it. Neither do I understand the folks who dress up in medieval costumes and go to the medieval sorts of fairs which are held periodically, but there are plenty of folks who do it.
