both armies are called the army of the potomac in 1861. so i will say confederate and union armies. just know they are both the army of the potomac. mcclellan will start reorganizing these forces are soldiers waiting for orders. our next slide is one of those union soldiers. this is charles bail of the 9th pennsylvania reserve. he will fight at dranesville. he and his comrades in the pennsylvania reserves had been formed, the state of pennsylvania had raised too many soldiers. the war department said, you have too many people. the war will be over in 30 days or 90 days, wherever it is. but the governor of pennsylvania has the great idea of turning them into a reserve corps. that's a good thing because after the defeat at bull run, what do they need? more people. you get these pictures off boxcars and cattle cars bringing all of these soldiers from harrisburg down to washington. so the defenses of washington are getting buffed up a little bit. again, he will fight at the battle of dranesville. you will see by late summer, early fall, the basic dispositions. you will see the union arm

he was a confederate sympathizer, but too old to serve in the confederate army, so he supported the army in other ways. he initially sold products from his farm to the army. bacon, beef. he had a livestock farm. eventually he fled the region, like so many other white landowners did as the union moved in. his farm fell into union hands and over the course of the war, it underwent a transformation that was nothing like anything jefferson sinclair probably ever in vision for his property. in fact, we can probably say it was one of his worst nightmares. because by the hundreds and even by the thousands, his farm became the destination of people escaping slavery during the war. they came from surrounding farms and plantations in virginia and a total of 4500 people had moved on to the property by 1865 and they changed it. it looked different as a result. they built houses, many hundreds of them, scattered them in the fields where his livestock once roamed. they built five churches, at least one store, and they built a hospital, too. the settlement on sinclair farm was told out in order and reg

in the meantime, george mcaleenan, a large army, at the army of the pacific really good for morale and bringing him down to this place. for tomorrow the oldest on foot in america you could take your loser friend and put him in the same spot today, and this will not be televised is it and you will have a meeting union force assembling this whole force assembles thing credits and through subterfuge through three or tricks through a general but, the confederate will give up your county, move on, move at wind work, for sean closer to richmond, the confederate capital, and we're going to have a fierce battle, a terrible battle called seven clients, or fair oaks, and here is the battle fought. that slows down the union for a while, but the most consequential thing of that battle in the last days of made, the 1st of june of 1862, that the confederate commander will be put out of the action, resulting in jefferson davis putting in his third most ranking general, johnson for, the robert e. lee. everyone thought to be cautious, he's not going to do anything well, as we now know he, will become t

grant will accompany the army. simultaneously, benjamin butler is supposed to attack richmond from the south is a right in here. we now call that the bermuda 100 campaign. meanwhile, confederate troops are being shifted to help lee or defend richmond, general sigel is supposed to push into the shenandoah valley and tie up the confederates. that was the plan. how did it work out? that will be the discussion of the next few minutes. approache ways i history is from the premise that history is about real people in the real things that they did. with that premise, you have to understand a little background on these commanders. ,et's start off with sigel sometimes called the yankee dutchman. germany,rn in 1824 in attended a military academy, so he has a european military training. revolution,european he joins with the revolutionary militia and becomes a leader of their army, about 4000 men. a battle, but in he gets this reputation, and the revolutionaries fleeing europe making their way to america, they carry with them

the federal army, the enemy. you need to watch them because you know they are going to advance and you are going to fight another battle with them. but who is in tullahoma? where is the army of tennessee headquarters? tullahoma. what hardee and polk are saying we have two enemies. one in the front and an enemy in the rear, our boss braxton bragg. the seeds that were planted in january of 1863 are bearing bitter fruit and they will bear bitter fruit as the tullahoma campaign progresses. in murfreesboro, all is not well with the united states forces either. rosecrans, after january of 1863, doesn't move out of murray murfreesboro in force although he will sends infantry raid parties and sometimes they get the better of the confederates, a lot of times they don't. but they won't move until june of 1863. how does that look in washington? seconds largest army in the federal service do not move for practically six months. that doesn't look good. rosecrans gets in trouble with washington. he can manage people around him

at the same time he advanced the armies of those to prepare for future warfare by standing at army to to commence the largest organizational change within the service within 45 years. the president could not of selected a more confident advisor or a more capable soldier to help prepare our military for the challenges of the future. general milley, congratulations to you and your wife as you take on this awesome responsibility. i have no doubt that you continue to lead our military to greatness. [applause] >> today all through throughoue arrld the united states armed forces are postured to deter aggression and to protect our people and ourur interests. accomplishing all that our nation demands of us would not be possible without the support of the american people, the congress, and the backing of an administration that place at the defense of our country at the top of its priorities. the department of defense has made tremendous gains in recent years thanks to president trump and and/or strength will continue to grow under his leadership. preserving military might that makes us the gre

oath of these armies want to write. -- both of these armies want to fight. they have a skirmish while mcculloch will take camp at the wilson creek valley. -- thing about wilson creek it's wilson creek valley, not wilson creek. i will throw around wilson creek and the battle of will sing creek. -- wilson creek. sterling price -- they have an interesting relationship, one tension.ull of a lot of it has to do with the performance of true at boonville. 'slot of doubts in mcculloch my about whether the state guard can perform. these are green troops. they are armed with squirrel rifles. as they have other weapons that do not fire. doubt. a lot of so that causes a lot of friction . he also does not believe that price is a competent commander. this is a reminder. the army will settle in wilson creek valley august 6. mcculloch has full command. arkansas troops, missouri state guard, and his brigade on august 4 and that was the result of price pestering him -- we've got to move. it was mainly he did not believe the state government was ready to write. so there was th

divide the army. typically we think of lee at chancellorsville for dividing your army even when outnumbered. well at they as battle of wilson's creek that happens as well. men at 5:00der his p.m. to depart springfield on august the ninth and begin their movement towards the valley. they go along the road to the southwest and as they approach wings, lyonboth will have 4200 men or so. have 1200. they will branch off off of the wire road and they will do a double envelopment attack. they will halt in the early morning hours of august the 10th two rest before they begin their actual attack. >> he is beginning to run into some of these troops. some southern troops thinking this is the picket line but in fact it wasn't. these are members of the missouri state guard who have gone on a foraging expedition to get some more food and as they are doing that, they are running into an entire advancing column of federal troops. they begin to run back and alert colonel james call thorn, who is in command in front of

you served as the 39th chief of staff of the army. begins, general, let me assure you you have the confidence of your commander in chief and you are carried with the confidence and the prayers of the american people. thank you for your leadership and service. [applause] vice pres. pence: as your tenure as chairman begins, i know you will be pleased to know that thanks to the leadership of president donald trump, you are inheriting the best supplied and best trained military in the history of the world. is united states military the greatest force for good the world has ever known. since the first day of this administration, president trump has taken decisive action to make the strongest military in the history of this planet stronger still. after years of budget cuts, president fought for and secured , the largest investment in our national defense in more than a generation, including the largest payraise for troops in more than a decade. direction, went's produce a strategy that puts america first. initiate the modernization of our n

we had allies come in and help us or the french army was a professional army. rochambeau thought the world of washington peered not because washington knew everything. russia both had been a veteran of many campaigns. but he saw and washington a man who could learn and really adapt and lead the revolutionary army. and you put that together, remember, we had a continental army, continental navy, continental marines before we had a country. and from our very beginning, allies have been critical to our nation survival. so i see myself in the continuing tradition of how we look at allies and history is very clear to me. not just about america, a nation with allies thrives. a nation without them dies. so real simple. the marines have put it more bluntly i think they say if you're going to a gunfight, ring your friends with guns. [laughter] it is the same idea. come together with like-minded people per you would not agree with everything i'm sure fdr agreed with little of stalin. other than let's to feed hitler's. world,t is an imperfect we need allies. dr. bradburn:

fact is now you've got actually 2 national armies 2 armies facing off against each other in a potentially confrontational position where i stand that there are still hundreds of thousands of civilians in this area the un says already around $160000.00 people have fled many of who already internally displaced aid agencies are seriously concerned for their own staff as well who having to be potentially be pulled out syria was always a difficult place for a day you cease to work in any way because of the security situation a bear in mind we've had reports of eisel prison breakouts the s.d.f. saying that they were unable to keep their positions guarding prisons in the face of the onslaught from the we apparently according to some figures may well have up to 800 beisel fighters or affiliates that have been freed or a skate in the last in the last day or so that only adds to the complexities of join to deliver aid to to these thousands potentially hundreds of thousands of people that have already suffered you know 8 years of war in syria and now facing potentially another one ok thank you for t

there wasn't the money to pay for the army. congress was highly suspicious of the military because in every previous revolution, in which a republic was the hope for end result, the military had ultimately co-opted the civil government and either a dictator or an emperor would take over so they were rightly concerned about the military so the continental congress was -- had real control over washington. i think we think of him as, you know, operating, being the one who is controlling this revolution. in fact, he had to report to the congress and i hate to say it but a dysfunctional congress is nothing new. washington had to deal with this. so one of the things that happened during this eight-year slog was that instead of fighting the british, we americans began to fight among ourselves. it was under the -- it was patriot versus loyalist to a certain extent but in large -- the hudson river valley to the north of british occupied new york, the long island sound, and the coastal new jersey, it deinvolved into this ugly cat and dog

campaign by the army over the last week also to boost its image but. when it comes down to it it doesn't take the army to really we haven't seen any use of any tactics to a violent act as we haven't seen any water cannons we haven't seen any theory gas which we saw in the 1st couple of days when the protests were angry so they kind of diffuse the situation in the 1st couple of days and then allowed the protesters to have a more festive carnival like a protest movement and that does not really bother the government they do not really need to send out the army to break that up because that. does not affect them what does bother them are the close roads and. stopping of businesses and that can be broken up without any real major force and without the environment involvement of the army really unless the protesters really shore up their lines and and are really that organized that they can stop in the front of the state and the citizen you know it's been 8 days now 8 days of banks schools universities closed major roads around the country closed i mean how

the armies supplies has come from the new york. and surprise and wagons and one example, the senate request in philadelphia and acres in 1781 here in william washington as there was in the state of the clothing arrived five years later and in charlotte but had not reached the washington's goons hunted a presence of supply and local officials and leaders throughout the campaign and struggled mightily to supply but in norman around of time with enough success to keep the army. the importance of logistics is that is driven home by the fifth century commander who wrote. without supplies., neither the general or the soldier is good for anything. in 2500 years later, omar bradley was the ground commander in europe and ward war two famously said, they don't discuss tactics and professionals discuss logistics. in addition, to the terrible logistical situation and the political turmoil in the nightmare of civil war. the revolutionary war between americans throughout the country was always part of the revolutions rain and especially vicious

the morale in the army of the potomac sunk to a new low. although lee and hill recognized that their victory was purely tactical, the strategic calculus convinced the average confederate soldier of the southern cause. i think the prospects are brighter than us now than ever before. the cavalry component of the second offensive would do nothing to alter that assessment. the infantry action of june 22 and 23rd played out as wilson's cavalry began an unprecedented ordeal for the union army. wilson had nine regiments into brigades. to brigades under west only had four regiments between them. organize to serve as a complex police by bodyguard under the immediate eye of the military humbug's hooper and belated in washington. the regiment was composed of men from maine. their lack of horsemanship was almost comical. as they started to raid that dark morning, they would place themselves in. there sachs would wobble and flock -- flap. it might have done the biggest business on the smallest capital of any mill in the country. another soldier noted th

it was the french army alongside the american army. they went up to the south and france, they got across from germany and turned. the other ones who went into southern germany and headed to munich and. -- czechoslovakia and east. >> moderates prerogative my own question. the liberation of france was a glorious event, eisenhower did not want it. he wanted to bypass paris. i said the liberation of paris france i met the liberation of paris. and then have to be responsible for it. this is the great what if. what would have happened in the war if those resources had gone to bradley and pushing east. i'm not an operations expert, but it seems the allied forces in general were reaching the end of their tether. the reason there was an argument, do we supply monti, do we supply patent, is because we were running out of supplies. the broad front approach rather than the single thrust. although ike did support operation market gardens in the netherlands, which was a disaster. i'm not sure the turning points are this fine. eisenhower didn't want

and we have secured a $65.00 towns and we secure it. 4 of our soldiers and 74 of us syrian free army soldiers lost their lives we have neutralized 750 terrorists and attacks we had 1081 mortal shall attacks over our border in our country and we lost. we lost lives 20 lives civilian lives and we have a 120 injured. there is nobody who called us and and their condolences this is quite this in order to protect protest we had so many calls from west and we had many western leaders that spoke to us trying to stop other operation this is now recorded in history as a. as an act of hypocrisy i will repeat this again turkish republic is a nato member is a nato state but. these terror organizations. when did they join nato i don't know. their friends. turkey from the very beginning. has been respectful to syria's territorial integrity and we have expressed this many times every opportunity we had. in order to have a successful geneva. he says we have sacrificed a lot and we put a lot of effort hopefully 30th of october geneva meeting and we'll start a new era for syria's use process. we have d

army and the late 1800s. i had never seen any historian who can show any evidence that european therapist knew about this. -- theorists knew about this. the thing you have to keep in mind is that the erie of field fortifications and the growth of their use as a worldwide phenomenon in the 1800s and 1900s and not just america. why did world war i and the western front de-evolve? the primary reason is because by 1914, europe has experienced an explosion of population all over the contentent, because they can afford to raise gigantic military forces. you can have a national army raised in a matter of weeks in 1914 that is big enough to span the borders of your country. in other words, you can have continuous fronts and world war i that you could not have in the civil war. there is no possibility of outflanking a trench on the western front because there is no flank. it starts on the coast of the north sea and goes to switzerland 500 miles. every yard held by a german soldier. sherman's strategy of outflanking th

most of the time that was in the army. so in my work, i brought examples to the cabinet and i looked at how the councils had importance to washington and the secretary which created this new institution. i'm looking forward to in my future work as i expand in the new projects. exploring how the councils of war and other interactions between soldiers and affected the behavior and the state governments in congress and in bodies bonnie cabinet. i would encourage others to do so as well and try to take that military perspective and look at how despite our governments exposing it completely civilian one and have the civilian authority really oversee the military. i would argue that the military culture was really warranted in the early years. so i very much looking forward to the conversation and i will answer your questions once were all done. >> doctor lauren duval. i'm >> sure most of you are well aware that there is the scholarship that had a more extensive way of what was there. my work deals with the american individual.

i remember saying to this man, "listen, i'm just a clerk in the army." he says, "no you're not, you're a nationalist from creggan". and then he went on to tell me, which i didn't know, he went on to tell me that bloody sunday wasn't what it was made out to be and the fact that i had a niece that had been shot dead in derry. i was told through bfes in germany that she'd been rioting. so he painted a different picture for me. so in fact you had many reasons to hate the british but in fact you were embraced by the british, persuaded to work for the british. correct. i suppose one of the important questions is — over the coming years from 1974 through to the early ‘80s, how did you persuade the republican movement, including extremely seniorfigures like martin mcguinness who had been an ira commander at the very top, how did you persuade all these people to trust you? well, i settled down in a little house in a state on the waterside. staunch republican. and they came to me and wanted my discharge papers etc, just to make sure that i was really out of th

the army of the potomac offered no support to wilson. when combined with the disaster experienced by the second court on june 22, and that if he of rights men the next day, wilson remarked it a low point in the 1864 campaign. hewas so discouraged that advocated the commencement of siege operations. he began contemplating a new offense of north of the james river and efforts to establish a beachhead had been the only .spect of the second offensive a confederate force southeast of petersburg, the regiment filled with pennsylvania coal members digging a tunnel, but that is a subject for another talk.
