The Story of "GLORY" was Larger Than You Think with Steward T. Henderson- America250
Addressing Gettysburg
A NOTE FROM OUR GUEST: "I wanted to make one correction that you can add to the podcast notes. I was saying General Early's Army at Nashville; I meant to say General John Bell Hood's Army was at Nashville. His army was defeated at Franklin and then Nashville. The losses from those two battles had lowered his army from 60,000 down to 8,000. Sorry, I got caught up in the conversation and said the wrong general's name. I just came back from a Mardi Gras event at church and it just hit me as I got back on my computer that I said Early instead of Hood." IN THIS EPISODE- 🔴USCT with Steward...

He implemented groundbreaking changes to the medical system that saved countless lives, including: Establishing the first organized ambulance corps. Developing a functional field hospital system and a method of triage for casualties. Pioneering hygiene and diet standards to improve troop health and readiness.
