It was the greatest war in American history.
Over 3 million Americans fought each other- 630,000 became casualties.
It was the only war fought on American soil by Americans, and for that reason we have always been fascinated with The Civil War.
Hundreds of books, movies and documentaries have (and are) being created about this tragic event in our History. With the internet, we now have yet another tool to (carefully) study every single event in this great period of American history.

EVERYONE should be VERY CAREFUL about emails received because we are such large organizations and so many emails go out over all of our websites. This same caution goes to individuals as well as Round TablesI have received many myself and contacted Comcast at abuse@comcast.net with a forward of these bad requests for money and/or personal information. They have been very good about tracking them back and doing their jobs.
Yesterday (April 5, 2012) I started receiving emails from one of our oldest and dearest friends in The Central Mass Chapter, Dick Swanson, telling me that he went to The Philippines on vacation, got mugged, and needed money to get home. I spoke to him this morning and it was BOGUS, so be very, very careful.
If you do not have Comcast and you even think for a second that you are getting something asking for money or personal information, from here on, contact whomever you use and ask for their security People and keep that address on your Address book for the next time.
