We have good Corporals and good Sergeants, and some good Lieutenants and Captains; and those are far more important than good Generals.

There is many a boy here today who looks on war as all glory, but, boys it is all Hell.
================================================== ======
In our Country... One class of men makes War and leaves another to fight it out.
================================================== ======
I am sick and tired of war. It's Glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heared the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengance, for desolation. War is Hell.
================================================== ======
I knew wherever I was that you thought of me, and if I got in a tight place you would come- if alive.
(In a letter to Gen Ulysses S. Grant)
