Brass Napoleon and Scotsman, I want to thank you both for a superb debate !!! It was totally enjoyable in the way you both presented your arguments and it was an informative and knowledgeable debate by the two of you. I learned a great deal and the format worked wonderful, with it limited to just the two of you it kept the distractions to a nil..........Again thank you both !!! I also want to once again thank Jgoodguy for his hard work at coming up with a very workable format for the debate.
I started of with the total belief that Gettysburg being the battle that affected the war the most, and I still feel that way but not as total as I did.
Brass gave an outstanding argument for Vicksburg, Scotsman did an equally outstanding job for Gettysburg, and I, like Ned, have a great deal more to ponder on the Vicksburg/Gettysburg question.............
Hats off to both you guys !!!!!
