Allegedly, just so. There's been some historical dispute over Armistead's last words; some measure of 'idolization' of him has occurred in the last twenty years or so, certainly since Michael Shaara's Killer Angels, and the portrayal of GEN Armistead by Richard Jordan in the movie Gettysburg, which was based on Shaara's book.
Still and all, a brave man in a troubled time.

Pulled off some random web sites, so no idea as to accuracy:
I've just had eighteen straight whiskies, I think that's the record. - Dylan Thomas I should never have switched from Scotch to Martinis. - Humphrey Bogart Either that wallpaper goes, or I do. - Oscar Wilde And then I ran into this: http://www.wfrp.de/hosted/flw/en/index.html Quote:
