The Confederate command structure, despite what he have been told for decades, rarely -- if ever -- got it together to act as a unit. Too many jealousies and grudges. Chief among those with jealousies and grudges was Jefferson Davis.

I’m guessing you could give us good info about the US Military Telegraph Corp. Maybe a photo of them in Lincoln’s War Room?

Thank you!

Hi, I know I did a post on Lincoln in the telegraph office which was in the War Department’s old library. I can't seem to find it, but I'll keep looking. Thanks for all the support!

I found the post, its from July 6, 1863. Let me know if you can access it. I will definitely revisit Lincoln and the telegraph sometime this year to give more details. Thanks for the suggestion!

Sorry, but I can’t find it. Could you let me know the date you posted it?

Thank you 🙏
