Fredericksburg

Many historians have very different ideas of the both generals Joseph Hooker and George Meade as well as their successfulness as positive military leaders. Professor Allen C. Guelzo argues that the victory of the battle would have occurred also with Hooker in command because war decisions during the battle weren’t always made my Meade. General Meade was recorded present at the Battle of Gettysburg on July 2nd at 1 p.m. The battle began on July 1st and the battle was on 3 days, this means Meade…

Business Description: The development of the downtown Fredericksburg and Central Park area presents a unique opportunity for the establishment of a nightclub. Fredericksburg sits centrally between two highly populated metropolitan areas, Richmond, VA and Washington, DC.

Washington, born in 1838, grew up in Fredericksburg, Va., and stayed there, in servitude to the widow of his master, after being separated from his mother and four younger siblings at 12. Unlike Turnage, who labored on an Alabama plantation and suffered constant whippings, Washington lived…

ever waited in line for hours just to get in to see this person? Last year, I went to see Donald Trump when he came to talk in Fredericksburg, and it really changed my views on people and on the media. I believed that the media was only slightly bias, and that people were generally good people, but I was mistaken. I went to the Trump Rally when he came to Fredericksburg last year “for the lul”. I was trying to be edgy, but I learned a lot when I went. The media portrayed the event with obvious…

as well as volunteer at shelters and hospitals. In middle school (specifically 8th grade from around December to June), I tutored two classmates in math (Algebra I) for a few hours per month at their houses. They have both moved away from the Fredericksburg area. I tutored Ethan Taylor in Algebra II for approximately half an hour per week by online video chat, as he lives in St. Louis, Missouri. In high school, my community…
