the army of the ohio, the army of the cumberland and the army of the tennessee. sherman commended the army of the tennessee. that was the part of his force to which he showed great favoritism. so much so that during one of hood's attacks on atlanta sherman did not send help to the army of tennessee because he thought the army of tennessee would be jealous. i wonder if some union soldiers pinned down of those trenches with bullets flying would really be jealous if other troops came in to chase the confederates away. i would suspect he would not be jealous. the attitude they took when the union army began taking in black troops. would they object, if sambo should stop a bullet coming to me direct? i don't think they would be in the least bit jealous. on the inside, that is the established framework. sherman was it really in general but his brilliance is confined to logistics. the confederate side is different. because they're all kinds of controversies on the confederate side. the campaign began the confederate army was commanded by joseph e johnston. he had a grea

it was seen dangerous by army pen he will and seen dangerous by army leaders. what you see as a result are arguments, real specific arguments that fight for this notion of comparability. here i have a couple of different quotes that you can look at. one from secretary don rumsfeld in his first stint. both are notable to the degree they not only refuse any notion of comparability between employment and military service but they say it's degrading. they work a kind of evaluation where employment ends up decidedly less valuable than doing military service. and this moment of distinction is a further moment, not only has the army distanced itself from civilian social welfare programs but it's distancing itself from all civilians and all government benefits of all kind and creating instead a different -- wrong slide -- a different category this would be a category in which there was nothing comparable to a soldier. the third defining moment has to do with taking these two previous moments of distinction of separation and the army's thoughts about what then if it was

of the army. what i started to get into this it turned out it was a very good time to ask these questions. the field in which i was trained, the history of social policies and politics had changed in ways that made possible the imagining of other institutions of social welfare. so a few things had happened, people were looking beyond the straight for government program like social security, aid to families with dependent children which is the program i had studies study. they were looking at what some called hidden welfare states or submerge welfare states, looking instead attacks programs. tax programs that had inducements or support for having children or for owning a house for example. they looked at loans that might come from institutions like the fha for example. also other scholars who talk not only about an obvious or federal welfare state but those who looked at private forms of social welfare which came to be known as a public-private welfare state. here they looked at things like private

if you look at the overland campaign -- to put it in perspective, the army of the potomac, that army that defended little round top disappeared in may and june 1864. they suffered more casualties than antietam, chancellorsville, and gettysburg combined. i saw a newspaper from new york. in those days, when you publish something, it was for pages. -- four pages. it was published that summer in a small new york county. it listed the casualties. that is all the paper was about. you can imagine that hurt that is going on within northern communities. this is -- if the civil war was a bad dream, the summer of 1864 was a nightmare. and certainly so for the families there who saw this. what else do we know? chambersburg was in ashes. you have sherman somewhere outside of atlanta get people did not know that maybe in 10 days from august 23, that atlanta would fall but he was bogged down in georgia and there is no resolution to this. and grant is in petersburg but that seemed to be endless, too. more casualties mounted up. also, though, in june, before grant would cross the river, robert e. lee

thisg, what is wrong with army? barney's flotilla came down. it caught the army by surprise. he waited until there was better than 150 yards to open up. and every gun opened fire and just tore into the brits. there were four or five direct shots and one ship. the british were afraid she was going to sink. one frigate had shots that took away her mizzen mast, plates that held the standard rigging mast in place, the shrouds, forced her out of the way. they both went to canister and great. smoke covered everything. the bottom line was, barney was able to push those british ships river --the pot exit the pot tucks it river. -- pawtuxet river. carried three times as many guns, so he made a right. thended up getting into river. the british sense marines. who did he run into, but the united states marines. captain miller and his marching marines were waiting. they fired a couple of volleys. they did not hit anybody. but they convinced the marines, we really do not want to be here . at we do not want to fight these people. idea. gave coburn an let's go get them. and, oh, look. washin
