Very interesting. Thanks. Sadly I doubt people will ever be free of war.
Yeah, doesn't look like there were many appeals back then....justice was swift, maybe we could relearn a lesson..
Yeah, you're right. I noticed a bunch of white men hanging a black man for desertion in one of those pictures.
What are the odds that the black man really tried to go AWOL as to perhaps the chance that he just pissed a bunch of white guys off and they decided to hang him and give a good reason for it?
I wasn't there . No way to know.
Very nice collection.
A relatively unknown place to go for those who have civil war interests, is the Walter Reed Army Hospital museum, in DC.
Surprisingly, back then, they were somewhat able to deal with things like having live solders brought in, who had their face smashed in by a cannon ball.
You're right, but what do you think the odds were?
People who want swift justice like the "old days" seem to forget about all the people who were screwed LOL
