    Look at those eyes, cold and focused! Sherman was all about business and efficiency, which he demonstrated when he prepared to advance into Georgia in 1864. He trimmed all the dead weight off the army, and allowed only one wagon per regiment. He made his staff as small as possible, and kept his papers in his coat pockets. He personally sent all the reporters packing, on the grounds that they would tell the enemy more than a battalion of spies.

    Sure amazing how much of a Cold Blooded Killer he was. Thanks to him and people like him the south took very many generations to recooperate after the shit he done. May he have an eternal spot in hell.

    "The General William Tecumseh Sherman Monument is an equestrian statue of American Civil War Major General William Tecumseh Sherman located in Sherman Plaza, which is part of President's Park in Washington, D.C., in the United States. The selection of an artist in 1896 to design the monument was highly controversial. During the monument's design phase, artist Carl Rohl-Smith died, and his memorial was finished by a number of other sculptors. The Sherman statue was unveiled in 1903."
