The Killer Angels
"'This is a different kind of army. If you look at history you'll see men fight for pay, or women, or some other kind of loot. They fight for land, or because a king makes them, or just because they like killing. But we're here for something new. I don't... this hasn't happened much in the history of the world. We're an army going out to set other men free.'" - Col. Joshua Chamberlain

I used to have a toll coupon from the Joshua Chamberlain bridge between Brewer and Bangor Maine
ReplyDelete(tolls were removed from it in the late ‘60’s) but it got lost 16 yrs ago when we left Maine for Idaho. Chamberlain was the real deal.
