If you could go back to any battle/engagement/action in the War using Blake's time machine, what would you personally like to see?

Strange thought I know, but I hope it might make an interesting thread.

I'd opt to be in the rigging of the Hartford as she fights her way past Fort Morgan and toward the waiting Tennessee.

I don't think I could bear to be with gggranddad at Murfreesboro.

What about you. Ever just daydream?

I dont remember giving you permission to use my Time Machine! You think its easy to get 1.21 Gigswatts inside of a DeLorean powered by a Flux Capacitor and Plutonium? Damn Libyan terrorists have tried to kill me a few times outside of the shopping mall. (Anyone who has never seen Back to the Future is so confused right now).

Second Manassas. Lots of Drama! Desperate attacks. Awesome flank attack. Yankees running for the hills. It has everything.

Well sorry sir!

I was hiding my empty Budwi - uh pepsi, yeah, my empty pepsi bottles and I saw the Flux Capacitor; next thing I know I'm heading for a bell tower!

Luckly for me you had it preprogramed to return to prom night 1999...

It would have to be Gettysburg

I'd have like to have been outside Chattanooga standing with Grant and Thomas to have seen the look on their faces when those boys in blue just kept right on charging and went up and over Missionary Ridge. Pickett didn't have anything on those guys, then again he wasn't facing Bragg either.

I would agree that Gettysburg would be worth a watch, the scale of the battle, the huge amount of artillary fire, the round tops, and then the finally, Pickets charge.

I kind of rank em as Cold Harbor, and Fredericksburg.....
