I cried the day they lowered the Confederate Flagg in SC and now in Ga.
51, 000. died at Gettysburg.(same as Vietnam). 12 family members died on the
Confederate side.
Over 253,000. died in the Civil war from both sides. Brother against
brother, an anglo-war in America. Yet , it is played down do to "Political
correctness".
Barbara Boxer and Feinsten are not the answer-- they are the problem....
They represent a very dumbed down America, write to War Veteran members od
Congress and the Senate..
The reason we are denied the knowledge of facts and history is due to
Political Correctness .

Steven:
Thank you for the info. I just e-mailed Barbara Boxer and Diane
Feinstein with my message of NARA's ills. In summary, I mentioned the
opportunities this agency is missing in generated money. By not
cataloguing, listing, and using technological advances to bring these
historical treasures to the genealogy, library, and educational
communities is very short-sighted for the future. 200 years of history
sitting in a warehouse is not where these treasures should be!
Anyway, maybe tomorrow I'll write a couple more senators in another
state.
Thanks again for the quickie info.
