I guess that is something that we will never really know. People who study the Civil War believe that If Jackson , had not been killed the results may have been very different in the outcome of the war. When he died Gen Lee made a statement: Gen Jackson has lost his left arm, I have lost my right! He would have played a very important roll in the outcome of the Civil War. Known as a military genius, a fearless soldier in battle but God-fearing man who hesitated to kill on Sunday.

Beautiful music, touching...General Thomas Jonathan Jackson aka "Stonewall", was accidently shot by his own men at the battle of Chancellorsville. He later died of pneumonia , what a loss of a great man and General of the American Civil War. His tactics on battle are still studied at war colleges today. It is said when he entered into battle with the "Stonewall Brigade," he became a fighting war machine and was relentless in battle. A superior leader for the South.

My favorite General!! I believe the outcome of the war would have been different had he lived.

For a good insite on 'T.J. Jackson', watch the movie...Yesterday the 'Directors Cut' of this movie was released for sale in Blu-Ray version! This will include much more including the Chancellorsville battle I've been told. Civil War buffs have been waiting for this version, for quite some time. It should prove to be well worth watching!

@SoBelleofTN True! Imagine if he had been there at Gettysburg for the first day! It would have been 2nd Mannasas all over again!

@DarthMercanto Ha your right, this conversation between me and mark was actually one of my first about the civil war on this site.

[DarthMercanto]

@RevBillyRayCollins That's frusterating, an informed and polite conversation about the Civil War on youtube and I missed it by six months :P.

This army stays here until the last wounded man is removed. Before I will leave them to the enemy, I will lose many more men. - Stonewall Jackson, Winchester, 1862.

yeah some people get so wrapped up in the side they choose that they cant talk with somebody that believes in something different

[RevBillyRayCollins]

@markmason1000 it was a war that shouldnt have happened Im just glad me and you are able to have a civil argument about it instead of some of the imature arguments I get into. Im glad someone can calmly give me their side and I appreciate you for it, I fell Im just like Lee, I wouldnt of wanted to leave but I would rather die than see my state marched on.

[markmason1000]

that's why I chose the side I did
