<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1774537, member: 26302&quot;]I agree. What too many forget is almost all commanders during the Civil War were old Mexican War buddies. It was Grant, who saw through the old facade and saw the real path to victory, that upset this status quou. Many commanders on both sides did not think much of Grant&#039;s tactics from what i read, but they were effective in shortening the war. Like most new types of warfare, it was hated at the time.</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;War is hell&quot; is about the most appropriate phrase ever uttered. Anyone glorifying war has never been imho.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
