@Valynn286 @AppomattoxNPS Yes, one of the stories that doesn’t get a lot of play is the epic overnight march by the Army of the James and Griffin’s V Corps from the Army of the Potomac to reach Appomattox CH in time to reinforce Sheridan’s cavalry. Chamberlain wrote of it in The Passing of the Armies.

@pakelihe @AppomattoxNPS True but Lee/Johnston would have been outnumbered around 3-1 and Grant/Sherman would have been well supplied while the Rebs were in bad shape. Even Lee would have been hard pressed to pull off that miracle…and Grant was no Pope, Burnsides or McClellan; when he bit he held.

Remember to “spring forward” one hour tonight. This means you have one less hour tonight to read about James A. Garfield, so you’d better start an hour earlier. We’ve already read all the Garfield books so we’ll be turning in at 9 pm as usual. #DaylightSavingsTime
