I have a few questions for all the Civil War Veterans (at least Civil War "exam" Veterans),
Is it enough to know who the primary generals involved in each battle were, or will I also need to know the names of the numerous subordinate generals, colonels, captains, and individual Batallions/Companies etc.?
Are there any MAP questions on the exam (ie, identify where Vicksburg is)?
For the generals, do I need to remember who went to West Point, who was born in Ohio, who was born in Virginia etc.?
I know I need to know HOW the key battles were won. But I am wondering how specific the exam questions will be:
Do I need to know that 300 Union soldiers attacked from the right flank at 7:30am whilst 200 attacked from the rear at 8:15am. Or is it enough to know that 500 Union soldiers overcame 800 Confederate soldiers on the second day of battle and General X made a hasty retreat?
Not sure how deep the questions will go!
Can anyone help me out?
Thanks,
Snazzlefrag
