After he said stuff like “War is hell” and introduced the bed-head hairstyle, General William Tecumseh Sherman appears to have become a lover, not a fighter. According to an 1886 magazine, the retired general’s “specialty is in kissing young women, of which he has probably done more than any living American.” Another account has him telling President Ulysses S. Grant, “You may drive your fast horses and I will kiss all the pretty girls! Ha! ha! that shall be my fad.” For more on American historical figures kissing unsuspecting victims, see here.
Pretty sure I was the one who said that… whatever General Sherman..
