Today at 11am ET marked the start of the Atlanta Campaign 150 years ago.

The first shots of the campaign were fired by the 2nd Illinois Artillery who were posted near Tunnel Hill. Johnston was using Wheeler's cavalry to guard the approaches to Dalton and the Federals began pushing them in and coming on line facing the Confederates today.

What do all of you say we keep this thread going throughout the campaign and discuss the "day's events"?

Perhaps someone else who has way to much time to do all of this do one for the Overland Campaign which began yesterday.

I have a twitter account "@CivilWarGa" that is giving day by day events too.
