I hadn't seen the Niles actor for years, then I saw him reprise his role as Dr Moriarty in Star Trek Picard the other day. He's still got it

Less need? The Union went through a lot of trash generals before finding Grant. It was desperate times.
Now if someone like McChrystal fucks up in Afghanistan we have a deep bench of highly trained officers hungry for stars on their chest.

He might have a few Cold Harbor-sized losses, but Grant may have been one of the few generals with a chance of adapting to the machinegun and mechanized warfare.
Though he liked horses a lot, maybe he would be too attached to cavalry

Reply to comment by coelurosauravus in TIL the first confirmed victim of Takata airbags was 18y/o Parham. As she drove around a car park, she lightly bumped another vehicle making the airbag inflate, sending metal pieces at such tremendous force that one hit the teen’s neck slicing open her carotid artery.
