    Hey Guy,

    Thanks for sharing the Lee portrait story. Lee was one of our country's greatest leaders before, during, and after the War. A true American in every respect. I only wish I could have been at the surrender and witness how he must have looked -- polished and buttoned to the hilt!

    Thanks again,
    Christopher E. McBroom, Capt.

      AGSAS had its annual January meeting yesterday, held in the conference room at the MOC, and we all got a chance to see the Lee painting. Definitely worth going to see, as is the Confederate Navy exhibit they've currently got running.

        But I do not think it is the best likeness of Lee, still worthy of seeing.
