Well, in that vein, what gets him the Medal of Honor is the Battle of Travellion Station,

right?

Medal of Honor, not as big of a deal in the Civil War because it was the only one the Army

gave you, more or less.

They still had a lot of room in Arlington Cemetery back then.

Well, actually, there was all the room because Arlington Cemetery was Robert E. Lee's

plantation.

Yeah, that's true.

So to make sort of a long story short here, the cavalry corps intended to cut the Virginia

Central Railroad at Travellion Station, right?

They encountered Confederate cavalry and the fighting eventually progressed to this point

where the Confederates held a farmhouse and the Union held its outbuildings, right?

He seized sent a man out to crawl on hands and knees to keep out of view of the Confederates

to report to Captain Furnace that they were out of ammunition and at the position fell

it might jeopardize the whole operation.

So Frank Furnace, he's got this large and impressive logistical and architectural head and

he decided to use his head, right?

Which is what if he put the box of ammo on his head and just sprint it over there?

Yeah, just going to take the thing that explodes, put it as close as possible in my head, just

give it a shot.

That's going to be a heavy box of ammunition, too.

Yes.
