Hey, ya'll Google "Petersburg, Civil War" of the "Battle of the Creater" and check that stuff out... This was one of the wierdest battles in the Civil War (which is wasn't) where the Union had blown a big hole up in front of well fortified Southern troops and Union soldiers were going to try to invade these well positioned Southerners by climbing down into this hole...

Hmmmmmmmm???

So the 1st plan was for black Union soldiers to do the first assualt until the Union figured out that the first wave was going to be slaughtered...

Now that wouldn't look too good for an army that was supposed to be fighting to free black slaves so white folsk were ordered into the hole and were slaughtered... Kinda an 1864 political correctness thing, I guess...

Some things never seem to change...

"Well, Ralph, if were gonna do somethin' stupid why not do it with good ol' white folks???"

Well, well, well...

What the heck kinda discrimination is this???

Nevermind...
