A couple came in the restaurant last week and I heard a favourite sound of mine: a Southern(US) accent. I asked them where they were from. They answer: “Have you heard of Manassas?”
… So, as tomorrow is the anniversary of the 1st battle, how about this: who is your favourite Brigade commander present that day?(Can choose a Regimental one if you want.)
I will plonk for that foul mouthed, drinker and brawler  who by sheer luck found himself in the right place and knew how to  make the most of it: Col Nathan G (Shanks) Evans of SC.

Or would you choose John Bell Hood?
Surely no lovers of…. John Pope?
