Relics Of The CSS Alabama. The Alabama Had So Many Yankee Kills That They Ended Up With Several Fancy

I was so busy this week I neglected the Anniversary of Robert E. Lee’s passing. May he Rest In Peace. America’s greatest Virginian.

The Principle for which we contend is bound to reassert itself, though it may be at another time and in another form. Jefferson Davis

Lee was not obsessed with rank like most re-enacting units today. He wore a colonels coat.

Uniform coat worn by Robert E. Lee when he surrendered the army of Northern Virginia to Union General Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox court house on April 9th, 1865.

June 19, 1864 Battle of Cherbourg France. The CSS Alabama was sunk by the USS Kearsarge. But not without a fight. This shot is still embedded in the side of the Kearsarge today at the Navy Yard. Both the quality of the powder and the coal were thought to have played a part in the Alabama’s loss. The British yacht the Deerhound rescued many in the crew including Captain Semmes. Unfortunately David White a slave from Delaware, who had been freed by Captain Semmes, from a Yankee ship, drowned that day. He is forever immortalized in the sea.

Just woke from a dream. In the dream I could see many Patriots armed in camp. I remember seeing peoples Fathers there of which I had not seen for many years. Then I turned and saw my own Father armed in defense. Then I understood.
