I know how she felt.
Sure a mixed bag there
To have mixed feelings about the death of her own brother, sounds like a sad situation. Hugs...RO
That's what civil war does -- divides families.
This is sad
Very sad.
The Civil War could get personal.
My family lost brothers to that war. Fortunately divided loyalty was not in play.
Must have been that way for many families. That is quite sad.
Lots of families were divided.
I didn't know that he was killed by friendly fire.
