Bit behind, listened to this on the way to see Dad for Fatherβs Day, Joe Iβm gonna HAVE to be βthat guyβ and I HATE βthat guyβ butβ¦.Nashville fell in February of 1862. I know you were probably just reading from a source that threw out βNew Orleans was the first major city in the South to fallβ but, well, yeah, no. They also burned all the supplies on the way out there as well, by the way. Nate, there was a Florida brigade at Chickamauga, (sic?) under a guy named Finley I think? (Iβve lived in TN for 30+ years) Great stuff, as always! Keep it up, yβall make long drives so much more tolerable
