“here under an oak tree that which was later cut down to make souvenirs” a true american tale

This is known as the greatest military campaign ever conducted in America. Hats off to grant

A major aspect of combat/war that many do not realize (much less think about). The logistics of combat. You can arm a great military force but without being able to resupply them, what good WILL they be?

Yup, Vicksburg was the first major military campaign fought in hostile territory with no supply line whatsoever, Grant resupplied his troops from the countryside until he reached the city's outskirts. Sherman, who served under Grant during this campaign, learned his lessons well and applied them with devastating effect during his march through Georgia.

“Vicksburg did not reinstate Independence day celebrations for more than 80 years in 1945.” Today we are only 75 years away from Vicksburg, MS and it’s officials even deciding to celebrate Independence Day after this defeat. It was a war that was so much about slavery and humanity. Certainly makes you think about the current state of the USA.

"partisan" debate? i can see why you say that, it's about PR- but still . . . why not print some of the articles of secession with the real language - just leave it there

My g-g-grandfather, William PF Tingle, fought with Newton County's 36th Ms. Inf. Reg. (Company C), which was instrumental in turning back General Sherman's May 19, '63 attack on the Confederate line at Vicksburg. That said, I have a bone to pick with certain reenactors. Most Confederate reenactors (unlike real Confederate soldiers in the Civil War) are older, out-of-shape guys who want to relive the good ol' days when their great-grandpappies fought to preserve the enslavement of black people. Here in Greenwood, Mississippi, I know one particular reenactor who has adopted the status of "captain" in a local CSA regiment: the 30th Mississippi Infantry Regiment. He has allowed his officer position to warp his mind, to the point that he now has the "big-head" and thinks that he IS a military captain (though he has never served a single day in the actual US military) who is obligated to follow the rule of being an "officer and a gentleman." A couple of years ago, I saw him and his wife at an upscale bar, and I spoke to him. A drunk woman at the bar later came straight up to me and fell down at my feet, totally wasted. I helped her up and out of the bar, and put her in a shuttle that would take her home, to safety. Lo and behold, as I walked back to reenter the bar, here comes this asshole "captain" walking outside, asking me "Where'd she go? " I told him that a shuttle was taking her home. I was later told by my friends at the bar that after I had left out with the woman, he had come to the end of the bar where I had been sitting, and in a huff, he loudly grumbled "I don't like the looks of this!" just before he walked out to confront me. Obviously, he had prejudged me by mistakenly thinking that I had taken her out to sexually assault her, and he came out there to proverbially "rescue the damsel in distress from the sexual predator"...and in the process, he maligned my name and reputation in front of my friends over it. I was extremely offended, and when I see him again, rest assured, there will be some shit over that fiasco. If he thinks that he is man enough to start unnecessary shit with me, then I will gladly accommodate him on that front. I don't tolerate the likes of an arrogant little shit like him starting uncalled-for crap with me. Oh, it's gonna get ugly. And the ironic thing is, another of my own great-great-grandfathers, Ewing K. Thompson, served in the Confederacy in the 30th Mississippi Infantry Regiment, Company H, in Carroll County...the very CSA regiment that this "captain" now represents. Grandaddy Thompson would roll over in his grave if he knew that a delusional piece of shit like this "captain" was representing his regiment.

And yet some still argue that the South's cause was not about slavery, when it was explicit in every state's articles of secession.

Shame shame shame on you Vicksburg. Not celebrating Independence Day till 1945.

FireHorse Um, yes it does Mississippi: Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery - the greatest material interest of the world. Its labor supplies the product, which constitutes by far the largest and most important portions of commerce of the earth. These products are peculiar to the climate verging on the tropical regions, and by an imperious law of nature, none but the black race can bear exposure to the tropical sun. These products have become necessities of the world, and a blow at slavery is a blow at commerce and civilization. That blow has been long aimed at the institution, and was at the point of reaching its consummation. There was no choice left us but submission to the mandates of abolition, or a dissolution of the Union, whose principles had been subverted to work out our ruin.
