Theme song for the thread

Whenever I visit my brother stationed in Georgia, I have to sing this when I cross the border.

Also featured in my favorite scene from Gone with the Wind (narrowly edging out "What use are cannons to gentlemen?")- the black carpet bagger singing this as he rides past the defeated soldiers after the intermission.

I drafted up gifs with him at the spots you specified, and I just wasn't feeling it. At the end does seem a bit more sincere, and I gave him a few extra frames.

You're a goddamn artist.

Great work!

I wish we could put something like �New Location at Marlago� but that would probably be cumbersome and get a potential call from some g-men.

I wish we could work Mar-a-Lago Delenda Est in but it doesn't really fit the theme.

Just like when they got to Columbia, Sherman's army kept perfecting their art right to the very end.

NSA wizard is adding us all to another list.

A list of winners and patriots. Too bad Trump isn't eligible for that list. :colbert:

Well, I guess I needed something to spike my blood pressure today. Guess my ancestors deserved that death march.

RFC2324 posted:

there was also his genocide of native americans, but against most of the union general staff

I see it as celebrating a good thing, which I can do while also acknowledging his failures

Same here. He probably wouldn't have cared to meet me but I can respect what he did for for the union against the confederacy.

More importantly, his spectre hangs over south carolina and georgia to this day, and I don't want them to forget that.

Thanks McNally :glomp:

Sherman had to get on to his soldiers more than once re heated and bent rails because they weren't making them right. He directed that the rails be twisted from end to end by two soldiers so that the rails look like screws and couldn't be reused, but often the soldiers took a shortcut and simply heated the rails and bent them around trees, which also earned them the nickname of "sherman's neckties".

Jet fuel can't melt steel beams, but campfires can.
