Lee's army suffered more than 5 times that in less than hour in Pickett's "charge". Hard not to equate the Stars & Bars to the Swastika. My family was part of the GOP since before the Civil War and they still are staunch Republicans. A distant cousin was Republican governor.

And you brag about such a disgraceful heritage? Slaughtering innocent civilians and destroying their means of survival? Shame on you! Sherman would have hung for what he did if the right ones had prevailed. That's the sad part.
