Have you ever noticed there seems to be quite a number of Civil War generals who were born in the month of January?

James Longstreet - born January 4, 1821
Gouverneur Warren - born January 8, 1830
Judson Kilpatrick - born January 14, 1836
Lewis Grant - born January 17, 1828
Robert E. Lee - born January 19, 1807
Thomas Kane - born January 27, 1822
George Pickett - born January 28, 1825
Henry W. Halleck - born January 16, 1815
John Fremont - born January 21
Thomas (Stonewall) Jackson - born January 21, 1824

Others?

Robert E. Lee would be 206 today! Happy Birthday!
