Today in history (the 9th of May), is a very important day for those who are of a military bent (Which is most of us I imagine).
In 1864, the worlds best battlefield quote was given by Maj. Gen. Sedgwick, In which when asked by his aide to get off his horse because there was Rebel Snipers on the other side of the battlefield, uttered:
"Nonsense, Why they couldn't hit a Elephant at this ran....."
