By the Spring of '63, the Texans who had been prisoners of war finally reentered service. The men must have believed the specter of prison life could not be exceeded. Soon, though, their service as a part of Granbury's Texas Infantry Brigade would surpass even the horrific cost they had paid as POWs...

What began as a number of mediocre military organizations, through a costly series of trials, ultimately was transformed to become a premier brigade in perhaps the finest division of the Army of Tennessee. Somewhere close to ten and one thousand men from Texas enlisted in units that formed the bulk of Granbury's Infantry Brigade, yet by war's end, somewhat less than five hundred would survive to be surrendered. Not many units could point to a more illustrious record, or a greater loss ratio than they suffered in the war.

The ones who lived through it straggled back to Texas that summer of 1865, though many more months would pass before virtually all made it home: among them would be those freed from far-off prison-camps, or from long tenures in hospitals that enabled them to at last recover. Yet, no matter how long it took them, for those who did come home, each brought tortured memories of his participation, mixed with a great sense of pride for knowing that they had, indeed, been A Force to be Reckoned With.

Timex tradition
The watch is pretty and functions great. The only thing I don't like is the light blue second hand is a bit hard to see in certain lighting. The other hands and numbers are easy to read and the band is easy to use. Nice watch with my favorite features.

Good purchase.
This is a very good price. It is easy to read, lights up at night. I am a nurse and must have a watch for work. Colors are cheerful. Easy to clean the band.

Love the military time feature & indiglo!
This is a great watch. Large face. I think I’ll have to change the band out quicker than I had hoped but I still think for the price it is great. Also, the pin snapped out randomly the second day I wore it while doing chores but it was easy to put back in since the pin was easy to find (thankfully). Still like it a lot for the features.

Attractive and reliable
Very attractive color. Numbers are large enough to read. Honestly don’t know if watch is completely water resistant because have not had the opportunity to find out. Love that watch lights up!
