Those "heroes" you refer to were traitors to the United States of America and should be recognized as such.

You do get the irony in your statement right? You define them as "traitors" simply and ONLY because they fought against the United States. Yet that is the very same thing that every single colonist did in fighting against England.

SSG Brian G. - Correct, they were traitors to the Crown. And had the Crown won, many of those colonist would have been hung.

I wholeheartedly agree. Record everything. This almost guarantees that they will not be repeated.

If you look at it truthfully we never should have recognized those who forsake their country and became traitors. Yes, many like General Lee graduated from West Point but once they joined the confederacy they were no longer United States Americans. I am also a conservative who thinks this is long overdue. I believe it should be up to the individual states to honor these individuals if they so chose not the U S Government. Of course this is only my personal opinion. But I can see both sides of the argument and hold no grudge against any opposing opinion.
