Gettysburg


Yesterday I watched a program about Gettysburg on the Military Channel. The little known fact was the role of George Armstrong Custer in that Battle. He and a Cavalry (Not Calvary) attacked the rebel flanking attack and stopped them from letting Pickett's charge split the union forces. a 23 year old Brevet Brigadier General saved that battle. Now if he had only understood that numbers count most of the time and you don't often get lucky.
