Message: [QUOTE="Gamecockfan77, post: 3251341, member: 6414"] 1. British military commander who fought in India before eventually being named supreme commander of British expeditionary forces in Spain during the Peninsula campaign of the war against Napoleon. Eventually invaded France. Named Duke of Wellington. 3. Winfield Scott was titular head of US Army as the states were succeeding. I should remember his nickname. He was fairly ancient when the War began and never had a field command, I don't believe. 4. CSA army had a muddled command structure. Robert E. Lee eventually assumed command of the Army of Northern Virginia but did not control the activities of the other confederate armies in the field. To the extent that anyone exercised global leadership it was probably Jefferson Davis who was President of the Confederacy and eventually I think held a generalship. 5. War of the Rebellion 6. North tended towards identifying battles by geographic features. South tended towards place names. Bull Run is the Northern reference, while Southerners referred to it as Manassas. 8. Hooker, Burnside, Meade. 9. Don't know, but I'll guess Hayes. 10. ? 11. Stonewall Jackson 12. It wasn't Ulysses? 13. 14. Petain 17. Flying Fortress 19. Ball turret was underneath the plane. There was an episode of Amazing stories where the gunner was trapped in the turret with no landing gear and I think he drew cartoon gear that held on. He was asleep or something. Not a true story. 20. Truman had replaced Roosevelt as President. 21. Winston Churchill. 22. Doolittle had lead a strike on Tokyo by launching B-24s from carrier group and landing in China. 23. Enola Gay dropped the first A-Bomb. On Hiroshima. 24. Douglas MacArthur [/QUOTE]
