[QUOTE="Locksley, post: 1476375, member: 1107"] An old hunting buddy of mine MR. Womack who was 99 years old when he died back in 2006 told me once that his uncle described the battle of Kenneshaw mountain to him. The uncle another Womack was in the Army of Tennessee CSA and said that they made a charge on the Federals Artillery as ordered by General Hood and as they charged across the field the genteleman looked to the right at his brother to see if he was still there , and as he looked a Union cannon ball came bouncing at them and took his brothers head right off. The charge was suicide and as most of the units that took part were killed or wounded it failed. They could sometimes see the balls coming but it was not possible to dodge them all. [/QUOTE]
