"Hardee's
Tactics" have been the standard tactics of the
army. But Hardee is a traitor, and in that respect,
at least, his tactics are not approved. But, aside
from that, Gen. Casey's tactics are deemed an
improvement, and have just been officially adopted.
This is a deserved compliment to a veteran soldier,
whose scientific skill runs parallel with his
loyalty and courage.
