Since you asked a reasonable question, unlike the loser who injected himself into my conversation with Mc, I'll answer you:
This occurred in the early "90's" at an otherwise highly thought of school... I had/have no reason to not believe her version of what she was being taught and since it was nearing the end of the Spring semester I simply planned and executed the trip I recounted.
Like I said, she did really well until I took us to The Wilderness battlefield (which back then was little more than a couple of brick kiosks with informational tablets...,and a little out of our way). Both she and my wife staged a mini-rebellion at that site...; fortunately I redeemed myself, along with Civil War History by stopping at Gettysburg for 3 days on the route back home...
As to whether anyone on here believes anything I type is less than important to me..., and arguing about it is simply taking the bait from someone who evidently has no life of their own...
If I feel I have something of consequence to share I do so...
If someone has a problem with it, well, that's their problem...
