cavalry is being sent to or places that they know men have congregated, so around the norfolk area and king george county, there are reports coming in the say there are a lot of an paroled confederates in this area, maybe we should send the provost marshal to this place. >> thank you. can someone clarify after sheridan arrives in the valley in the late summer, it is still about a month before the actual fighting begins. can you clarify on why they waited so long. i'm sure early was expecting an attack. >> the reason was that grant was under the delusion that early's army was much larger than it was, and when early sent part of the troops back to lee, at that point, grant felt that sheridan had a much better opportunity of achieving his objectives, but it is a very interesting phenomenon that the federals overestimate early's force and lee grotesquely underestimates the federal forces. lee thought early was facing a force approximately the size of his own even fairly deep into the campaign, when he was really facing 2.523 times as many men as he had. it was one of the biggest miscalcula

we couldn't be in norfolk without talking about douglas mcarthur. the thing to remember is he's very much a 19th century man. graduates at westpoint in 1903 and commands in the famed rainbow division in world war ii, superintendent of westpoint, becomes chief of staff of the army under hoover, president hoover in 1930. then retires from the army, making a long story short, ends up in the philippines, he's an advisor. by the fall of 1941, he's basically convinced the american leadership, the war department, that he can in fact defend the entire part of the philippines. that really brings us to december 7th of 1941. i think the thing that is important here is nimitz taking command of the commander in chief of the pacific fleet. right after pearl harbor, roosevelt said to king, tell nimitz to get out to pearl harbor and stay there until the war is won. nimitz did, takes a train across country, kind of in shock, ends up flying from the west coast to pearl harbor and he assumes come manned on the deck on december 21st of 1941. he later joked he took comm
