2. Disastrous Strategic AttritionA graphic emphasizing how he brought ruin to the South can safely use the exact troop numbers of his command to show his brutal negligence:The Numbers: When Hood took command of the Army of Tennessee in July 1864, it was a highly capable fighting force of over 50,000 soldiers. The Result: By Christmas 1864, after his consecutive disasters at Atlanta, Franklin, and Nashville, he had shattered the army entirely, leaving behind fewer than 20,000 broken, demoralized men. He single-handedly destroyed the primary Confederate military force in the Western Theater. John Bell Hood's cruelty (educational purpose only); 3. Destruction of Infrastructure in Atlanta The Action: On September 1, 1864, as Hood was forced to evacuate Atlanta, he ordered his retreating troops to destroy anything of military value to prevent it from falling into General Sherman's hands.The Chaos: This included blowing up an 81-car ammunition train packed with Confederate explosives. The resulting massive explosions accidentally leveled nearby civilian neighborhoods and sparked fires that consumed a large portion of the city's industrial heart before Union troops even entered. 1. The Catastrophe at the Battle of Franklin (November 30, 1864)This is the absolute core of Hood's reputation for throwing away human lives. Following his failures to hold Atlanta, Hood marched his army into Tennessee. The Action: Out of anger and immense frustration that the Union Army had slipped past him the night before at Spring Hill, Hood ordered a massive, headlong frontal assault against heavily fortified, entrenched Union positions at Franklin. The Factually Bulletproof Data: Hood ordered nearly 20,000 men to march across two miles of open field into direct rifle and artillery fire without any artillery support of his own. The charge was larger and resulted in more casualties than the infamous "Pickett's Charge" at Gettysburg. The Carnage: In just five hours, Hood completely decimated his own army. He suffered roughly 6,250 casualties, including the staggering loss of six Confederate generals killed or mortally wounded in a single afternoon. Historians regularly cite this as virtual military suicide driven by Hood's emotional recklessness. | image tagged in facts,confederate,confederacy,history | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
