Patrick Cleburne and the Army of Tennessee tribute

[Ariel62073]

Slave driver-traitors didn't all get hanged by the president. You rebel sympathizers should realize that America is a wonderful country. If your heroes had tried that in Russia or Nazi Germany, Davis and Lee and the others would now be synonymous with Hitler and Stalin.

[MiniInloesteam]

@Ariel62073 Obviously an uneducated arrogant piece of yankee trash, why dont you take a break from trolling and read about Patrick Cleburne, and maybe the Irish Immigrants also, you will learn alot. Hopefully

[Ariel62073]

@MiniInloesteam And why are you glorifying an old murderfest in the woods?! 

[MiniInloesteam]

@Ariel62073 In hopes of idiots like you will read the truth and break your trance, obviously brainwashed by northern school teachers.

[rebelproud81]

@Ariel62073 Yeah compare them to something their not. The comparison between Lee and Facism is or even communism is a display of ignorance. Only a yankee would sell out his neighbors for 13 bucks a month. If you really wanted to make comparisons Lincoln ordered the death of his felow country men because he thought them a threat to govenment control, just like stalin and hitler. Lee is exactly comprable to Washington, throw off oppression and destroy the invader.

Cleburne was last seen advancing on foot toward the Union line with his sword raised after his horse was shot out from under him. Accounts later said that he was found just inside the Federal line and his body carried back to an aid station. The Battle of Franlin was one of the bigest losses of the Confederacy where they took 6,252 casualties. What is also sad is that the battlefield hasn't ever been properly preserved til recently. The spot where Cleburne fell had a Pizza Hut built ontop of it.

[AUG351]

Patrick Cleburne died in the Battle of Franklin, Which they call the pickett's charge of the west because the Confederates attacked Union fortifications after Gen Hood decided that he would attempt a major offensive northward. Hood used Burnside tactics, using unorganized frontal attacks heavy Union fortifications. Patrick Cleburne observed the enemy fortifications as being formidable, but he told the commanding general that he would either take the enemy's works or fall in the attempt.

@AUG351 Thanks for sharing that information :)

[loneguitar13]

I thank you for this, I had several ancestors who gallantly fought for our great state and were at Shiloh, Fort Donelson and paid the ultimate price.

[Tannenberg71410]

Minilnoesteam: Thank you. It's great.

[Tannenberg71410]

What is the name of this music? Was it written specifically for this video or is it from some other work? It sounds like it is based on Celtic style folk music. Could it have been from the sound track of a movie? Whatever, it's very melodic and relaxing. Good instrumentation, too.

Patrick Cleburne was one of my favorite Confederate generals. I always wonder what would have happened if his plan would have succeeded

omg u are an idiot, if u think clebuurne sucked. and forrest sucked..lol

[PaulMichaelHoffman]

The rebel Army of Tennessee sucked ass.

The US Army of Tennessee on the other hand kicked rebel ass.

[MiniInloesteam]

@PaulMichaelHoffman No the army did not suck, there commanders sucked, NBForrest and Cleburne, and Hood up until Army command were the most competent Commanders there were.

[PaulMichaelHoffman]

@MiniInloesteam Hood? Hood got his army butchered in front of Atlanta. Then compulsively killed off the survivors in front of Nashville.

[MiniInloesteam]

@PaulMichaelHoffman Are you that retarded you cant read my response correctly? I said Hood was competent up until ARMY COMMAND. Fucking dumbass

[PaulMichaelHoffman]

@MiniInloesteam Read your comment again faggot. You cant even get your grammar correct. "There" instead of their? And your calling me a dumbass?

your funny.

[PaulMichaelHoffman]

@MiniInloesteam and Hood sucked as a corps commander ala the battle of Kolb's Farm. Let me ask you, are you trying to look like a fool or does it come naturally to you?

[MiniInloesteam]

@PaulMichaelHoffman Hood was a talented brigade and division commander. When he really started doing horrible was when he took over command of the AOTN

[PaulMichaelHoffman]

@PaulMichaelHoffman take a chill pill too bro, or you might be in danger of coming off as a raging psycho.:/

[ernstbecker1]

and here's to you Paddy Cleburne, you're a first class ffghting man ! Histroy will never forget you. Lacuna da ..............

[BenAliGtor]

@FilmCriticOne @FilmCriticOne<<<==<<< It would have been better had you left no comment at all- thus leaving others to speculate as to your ignorance of history- than to post what you did, thereby removing all doubt.

[rtb2425]

Patrick Cleburne was an incredible man and a true American hero....if not for revisionist Yankee history we would have monuments and schools in his name.

[BenAliGtor]

This "damn Yankee" (actually, I prefer "Western Federal to "Yankee"-- but that's another story) believes that Patrick Cleburne was the BEST the South had. His successes were even more remarkable when you consider that the AOT never had the advantage of a well trained middle level officer corps (majors, lt. cols, and cols.) that were the key to the ANV's success.

[sukneh]

If Cleburn had the AOTN instead of Johnston or Hood, it is plausible that Sherman would nto have taken Atlanta in time to impact the 1864 Northern elections. Remember, earlier in the year he had been asked to resign for the good of the party!

[MiniInloesteam]

yep, thats what i believe, Cleburne and Forrest couldve done great things for the confederacy, i plan on doing a video about Nathan Bedford Forrest.

[11nytram11]

@sukneh Cleburne would never have gotten the Army of Tennessee instead of Johnston, he was too far down the ranks of seniority for that. He might have gotten the second Corps of the Army of Tennessee instead of Hood had he not proposed to arm the slave for the cause however and that would have been beneficial to that army. In particular Cleburne would not have been spooked by reports of Federals on his flank and called off an attack without checking like Hood did at Cassville.

[11nytram11]

@sukneh Incidentally, I doubt Cleburne would have been undermining Johnston in constant underhanded communications to Bragg and Davis in Richmond like Hood did, nor would Cleburne ever attempt to launch on an attack like Kolb's Farm as Hood did - a poorly judged attack that was repulsed with heavy casualties. In a large way Johnston was handicapped by having Hood as a Corps Commander. If Johnston had had Hardee and Cleburne as his Corps Commanders his chances for victory would have been greater
