Happy Birthday, Little Phil!
Gen. Philip Henry Sheridan was born this day in 1831 in New York.
I've paid tribute to Sheridan before on the anniversary of the Battle of Cedar Creek in 1864. Jump on over to read again "Sheridan's Ride."
Aside from the fact that he was too tall, wouldn't Lee Van Cleef had made an excellent Sheridan in the movies?
"I'll bet they don't call you General Angel Eyes!"
