RE: Removing Confederate Generals portraits?
Always remember George C Scott as Patton in the movie, when he defeated the German 10 PZ Div in N Africa:"Rommel, you magnificent SOB, I read your book!"

The same can be said of studying and honoring Forrest, Jackson and Lee--for the same reason we ought to study Grant, Sheridan and Sherman. The Germans studied Sherman's March to the Sea to hone blitzkrieg, i.e., never run at your target, go between two targets and let the enemy commit to one and you take the other. Never underestimate the enemy no matter how despicable you think he is.
I believe that Sun Tsu said something like that centuries ago. We need to grow up.
