Cummings---Yeah that is Joshua Chamberlain and he was in command of the 20th Maine Infantry at Little Round Top. Keep Joking we're a good crew :D

[cummings2]

OK. After a quick google search:

At the Battle of Gettysburg, the 20th Maine Regiment, under the command Colonel Joshua L. Chamberlain, who would be given charge of the strategic site known as Little Round Top.

So, I WAS right he was frm Maine, so my team will be:

Maine 20th Regiment

Headed by: Lt. Joshua L. Chanmberlain

Bombs-away: Fred Siegal is a fancy store and here is Beverly Hills pretty much all teeny-bopper teenagers go ga-ga over it and spend literally thousands of dollars in clothing there, guess it was a bit too regional a reference.

Cool, so now that I can have my funky sense of humor back...keep 'em trivia Qs comin'! I love it.

"Little Round Top"...and I thought it was table top...jeez now I feel pretty mesosoic on the IQ scale.

OK One more trivia before we draft:
And a pretty easy one at that:

Who was the one and only President of the Confederate States of America?

[Coffeeholic]

Cummings... I thought it was the 20th Maine commanded by Jeff Daniels? :wink:

btw... my team will be: New York's Irish Brigade managed by Brig. Gen. Thomas Meaghar.

Pelzer, Now you are lobbing softballs out there with that question. Did you know that there was a Union General that shared the same name as the CSA president? I bet he heard some jokes about that. :P

[KEVINEHLE]

I'll take Fighting Joe Hooker. His name reminds me of how I met my new wife! :shock: :shock:

Everyone probably knows that the capitol of the CSA was Richmond, VA. However Richmond was the 2nd capitol, it was not the original capitol. What was the original capitol of the CSA?

[STEPHENANDERSON 2]

President was Jefferson Davis I think?????

[LARRYLANG]

Montgomery, Alabama was the original Capital..They wanted it closer to the front!!! Boy did they get what they wanted...And yes It was Jeff Davis the one and only CSA President.
