and that left the initiative to sherman. but johnston hoped that once sherman attacked him and was repulsed from strong defensive positions, he could counterattack and launch that offensive into tennessee that davis expected. at least this is what he said in his infrequent reports to richmond. now his critics, then and later, insisted that johnston never really planned to do this. that he was constitutionally incapable of mounting an offensive. that all he did was dig in, hope sherman would attack came where he was strongest, so that the disparity in numbers could be minimized. one of his famous quotations following fredericksburg was when johnson read about this in the papers he said "what look -- luck some people have. no one will ever attack me in a position like that." [laughter] johnston positioned his 40,000 men along a ridge line named rocky face ridge, north and west of dalton. this would be the wall against which sherman broke his armies before johnston's suppose it -- supposed counterattack. sherman was not so obli

he made this argument to sherman worldly and sherman put it in the working document that he presented. i think johnston was farsighted here. he knew there had to be an uthority of some kind. he kind of wanted to avoid that if he could. the argument has been made that johnston was looking out for the citizens of south in a postwar period. hat may be true. >> could you go over the ranking of those five generals, one through five? x what is cooper's first name? samuel cooper, he was actually the highest-ranking general in the confederacy. a lot of people overlook this. he had never served in the field, and was long in the tooth for those days, but remained on active service in ichmond for most part. he was ranked first. and number two, -- somebody help me -- albert sidney johnson was number two. that as davis's favorite general. he had what they call the first captain, the commander of the corps at west point, from when avis had been to debt. so he had reverence from albert sidney johnston from the beginning. after he was a killed at shiloh, he appointed his son on his staff in so he had

the sherman went on to war and the shermans would see service. i think paraguay just brought them back into service, two of them. it was arguably the definitive and best sherman. you do have the question of protection. this is not atypical. a lot of crew men would add armor on to their vehicle. another thing to consider is any addition of armor only adds weight but creates a false sense of security without actually providing material additional protection. was such that existing armor almost needed doubling. additional protection afforded longer ranges by slight increases of armor would hardly justify the additional weight and subsequently increase load on engines and suspension. you're a tank crew man. you figure out these german 88s and 75s are punching right through my sherman, i must do something to make my sherman tougher and you put sandbags or concrete or whatever it is. is a sandbag going to stop an 88? is your transmission going to be happy with the extra two tons of sandbag that you just put on your tank? and both the germans and the am

sherman is a death trap. in the entire war, armored force lost that many tankers killed, the entire war, in all of north africa, sicily and italy, 80 tankers were killed. if you think about the reputation, is amazesly low. part of the reason for is is how easy it is to get out of one of these. i have the oh, my god the tank is on fire test. how quickly can i get out of the tank if it's on fire. with the m-4, the hatch is right above you, pop it up, out you get. you look at the panther and the command commanders doing this about and the tiger is getting out like this. a very survivable tank, very versatile tank. flame thrower, you could do anything with this thing. rejected developments, 17 pounder, i can go on about this forever. the bottom line is, the americans didn't think it was a good idea. i'm not sure it was a good idea. they would have been better off building the 76, but they didn't, that's why the fire fly has reputation. the americans had infrared. they just realized that it didn't work. when the g
