Civil War Generals on Wristwatches

(mx: Ashoken Farewell up and under)
anncr: "Pvt. John Robinson took one last glance at his Ulysses S Grant wristwatch. 3:30. The time was at hand. In just minutes Robinson and the remainder of Hooker's battalion would throw themselves up the flank of Missionary Ridge"

vo: Mrs. Robinson: "My Dearest John, If this letter finds you alive, rest assured that I still dream of the day when I can again hold you and admire that beautiful Ulysses S Grant timepiece..."

Enough of this slaving on the internets. I've found my calling. I'm gonna go make documentaries for the PBS.

Here's my new U S Grant watch and also the Robert E Lee watch for those who lean to the South.
