Sorry it looks like BW has gone to sleep..... wanted to introduce a little Texas history ....I always thought that if you won the last battle, you won the war :):):) Attached a link to The Battle of Palmito Ranch, by the looks of it, Lincoln's boys should have just headed home instead of attacking those poor Texans !! Not much interest is given to this battle, and I thought it would be an interesting tidbit.
Have to also disagree with BW on this...... if he had been born in Texas before the CW, he would have fought for the South. Not a doubt in my mind.
