second this.
The AotT campaigned from
Fort Donelson to
Shiloh to
Vicksburg to
Chattanooga to
Atlanta to
Savannah, through the
Carolinas to
Durham.
matchless in terms of shoe leather, campaigns, states and miles.
it is a soldier's army, under Grant, Sherman, McPherson, Howard and Logan...
To quote one author: Nothing But Victory, a term that applies to the US AoT rather well IMO.
