They went to camp for training, and were trained soldiers just like the all the rest. Definitely a smaller percentage but you can bet some of the Confederate Army's soldiers were foreign-born immigrants. Primarily consisting of Irish, English, German , along with Mexican Texans and Hispanics.

I’d say that happened on both sides.

The south never really lost…just wore themselves out whipping the Yankees.

Pee Wee football…. I chased the opposing teams running back out of bounds…..then weaved through cars all the way across the parking lot, circled around the nearest school building and despite 100 hollering parents, made a couple laps around the playground before I finally made the made the tackle.

Moved to Ky and one thing I don’t like is paying property tax on things that were paid for long ago. For example: 250$ property tax this year for a 10 year old truck.

Went to Black’s last year, while down there to see a doctor. Atmosphere was good. Was not impressed much with the brisket. At least I use seasoning when I smoke them at home.

That’s what I am hearing as well. It was rough for sure.

There’s big one just south of Monroe, La. On US 165.
Eye sore would be an understatement.

Have several ancestors that rest in the Roberts Cemetery in Amite Co.

Is it just my tv or us Tenner’s uniforms really that ugly?

Now that’s how it’s done!
