Answer 4

I will go with #4. BRADY. I am certain of that one.


I could guess "Gettysburg" for #1

I don't remember but it was something self-serving, like "fight to preserve our precious way of life." I know it was not a geographic reference since only the north used those.

I could guess "March to the Sea" for #3
