Happy Robert E. Lee Day! "My chief concern is to try to be an humble, earnest Christian."

@SuperSnekFriend@poa.st i was big on war history, and i've always had a soft spot for Lee. dude just commands honorable discourse.

@bleedingphoenix@wolfgirl.bar @SuperSnekFriend@poa.st even people not sympathetic to the southern struggle admitted he was one of, if not the best general America has ever produced right up until the last decade or so

@Paultron@poa.st @SuperSnekFriend@poa.st @bleedingphoenix@wolfgirl.bar as much as I would like to respect Lee, the best southern general was Jackson, his death mattered more to the cause than we think.

@MK2boogaloo@lab.nyanide.com @Paultron@poa.st @bleedingphoenix@wolfgirl.bar Lee–Jackson Day is tomorrow in Virginia.

@Paultron@poa.st @SuperSnekFriend@poa.st my "guilty pleasure" generals when i was a little guy were Robert E. Lee and Erwin Rommel. nowadays it's not so guilty but even when i was young and into war history i had to hand it to them.

@bleedingphoenix@wolfgirl.bar @SuperSnekFriend@poa.st I really like Zhukov, even if he fought for the wrong side. Dude was a genius
