Please do not use any of the information in this video. Not one single fact presented is in line with current scholarship. It is sad that such incorrect information is still put forth as truth. |
| Sorry to hear about the video George Wunderlich and thanks for your warning. I really appreciate it. I really hope that this will be corrected and I do hope that many people will be warned about it. Also, I just hope that the truth will be set out and will be disseminated so that no one else will be fooled. Thanks anyway. |
| Well you know what they say about history, it is often not far from fiction as history is written by men, and men have their own views and color on a topic which will always come through in their story telling. However, George, I would be interested to hear which points exactly are not factual, as I am not quite familiar with this period and would like to hear about it from your point of view. |
| Let's just be thankful enough that there are better types of medical equipment used in the hospitals today. In that way, people will have lesser risk for infection just like what people experienced during the past civil war. It was really limited before but today we have more manufacturers which could provide quality made of medical equipment that is suitable for all people. Thank you for sharing the video. |
