'Pardee':
Not a pleasant day to remember. April 9th. It is just two years ago tomorrow that Lee surrendered to Grant at Appomattox. We were better soldiers, better men, a spiritous course, full of battles... and still we did not win the war. Have you ever asked yourself why? Because we were insufficiently ruthless! We allowed our own code of honor to destroy us. But tomorrow, on the anniversary of that battle, I shall dispatch at least one thousand mounted men against the enemy and they will be ruthless. I do not need to organize them, instruct them or lead them, and yet they compare to the best troops I've ever seen. The Apache!
