      Interesting story. I have never hear of him, but quite a character and soldier. It appears that he had "command presence "

          BTW, his great-grandson is buried in Arlington and bears a unique distinction.

          Care to guess what it is?

                Ok, I think I've stumped you.

                He was the first American general to die in WW2.

                  Yeah, I googled it and saw, but I didn't want to cheat. He was an observer on a B-17 which was shot down.

                  However, reading the story, it jogged a memory, so maybe I used to know that.

                  The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                    Shelby Foote said he and Lincoln were the two geniuses made by the war.

                    The whole reason we call them illegal aliens is because they’re subject to our laws.

                      Shelby is no longer PC.
