Expansion

edit

I added a little to Hardee's page and cited what I could. More info is needed for his youth before West Point, and the remaining important facts need citing. Kresock (talk) 00:24, 5 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Battle_of_Averasborough

edit

this battle is where Hardee engaged Slocum & Sherman's West wing so Johnston would have a chance against only Sherman's East Wing at Bentonville. But he didn't slow Slocum enough. section definitely needs to be added. Godspeed John Glenn! Will 15:01, 25 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Bragg and Davis

edit

2602:306:bdca:15f0:559f:fd0c:67a5:b5f8 claims that Bragg and Davis were not friends. (Bragg had left the army in the 1850s due to a quarrel with Davis. This is a myth too often retold.)

I think the rebuttal of the myth ought to be featured, with citations. Also, if they were not friends, why did Davis keep supporting Bragg, when so many generals were pressing for his removal? Valetude (talk) 14:21, 7 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
