A strong old man pulls through
One old man was willing to start on the road of battle again after numerous years after being a soldier he begins to work again when he's 70 years old when he hears nearby gunshot he jumps at the shot to get out his old dusty flintlock rifle runs out to the battlefield to fight for his country.If you think this is interesting he actually go's to help his fellow northerners in a small group but he gets abandoned so he is left to fight alone but he gets shot in the arm 3 times wounded and tired he did what any smart man would do he lied saying he was never in combat so he would get emergency care instead of being shot because if he had told the truth he would have been confirmed as a spy and he would have been shot on the spot.So this man was lucky and got away bandaged and safe.
we could have lost if it WASN'T for a heart attack
Robert E. Lee had a heart attack the night before a day including Pickett's charge that made him make poor decisions making many plans fail such as Pickett's charge which was ran at a wrong time killing many confederate soldiers.So if he would have been healthy the confederate could of won and we would of had been a completely different country with the confederate president running the country so be thankful for what happened that night,
