. >> al haqqy from mechanicsburg, pennsylvania. did you notice any discernible difference between the post-war reactions of lee's veterans who had last order and thompson's veterans who were insulted by him? did that carry over into reconstruction? >> well, i think it's hard to follow each of them specifically, but lee's status among his soldiers only was elevated after his conduct at appomattox. if you read their post war accounts of being there and seeing him, they're overwhelmingly glowing. whereas thompson, as you would imagine, they didn't have any nice things to say about him, one way or another. the extent to which that carried down to what they did later is very difficult to ascertain. that's a good question, though. >> from chicago, illinois. this is a vaguely formed question, so forgive me. i work down at harvard square national historical park. we get a lot of visitors. when we tell them how these soldiers that surrendered there, they were paroled and they're sort of largely left to their own devices and they're eventual
