I'm sure that it was done as well in the Civil War as it was in others.

Don't know a distance?

Get someone to pace it off.

I don't remember all the specifics, . . . one of our outfits in Vietnam were getting repeatedly beaten up by mortars that just seemed to be too accurate.

One of the guys noticed that the attacks came after the barber had been there.

He wasn't marching in to cut hair, . . . he was marching in to measure distance from A to B.

I don't remember what happened to the barber, . . . but it wasn't good.

May God bless,
Dwight
