Irving Morrell
Irving Morrell in 1944. Ok, I admit, it's just a pic of Erwin Rommel in a US Army uniform

Order of the Virginia
The Order of the Virginia that was awarded to Roger Kimball after he torpedoed Chesapeake Bay

that's exactly what I imagined Featherston looking like (except with some gray streaks in his hair)
Is there a clear full body version of this eagle?
A rare case where the American cover for a Turtledove novel is better than the British one:

Actually, the American covers for Turtledove are usually better than the British ones. The exception is the Settling Accounts series.
You know, I never caught that parallel until now.
Wonder why HT didn't make him a Confederate. Maybe Patton vs. Rommel was too good to pass up?
Actually I usually find Ilike the British covers for most books (not just HT) better than American. Espeically Paperback ones.

Yeah, I'm sure that if Patton hadn't been born in Virginia we would've seen him as a US general and Morrell/Rommel as a CS general. Rommel OTL was a likeable enough character (honorable German general who refused to join the Nazi party, tried to kill Hitler, etc) I'm sure it was easy for Turtledove to envision him as a sympathetic character.

Also he should have a few raw red patched of skin because he sunburns easily, he sunburns easily, he sunburns easily, he sunburns easily, he sunburns easily...
No, no, how can you forget?
That was Sam Carsten, the US Navy serviceman. He's the one depleting the world's supply of zinc, not Snake Featherston.
Actually, Sergeant Snake tans easily, he tans easily, he tans easily. But as soon as he started living out of his leader-bunker he's pale all the time, pale all the time, pale all the time...

Yes, just so
I hadn't noticed that before, but you're right, it's repeated almost as much...
Warning
This recovered photograph was featured in National Geographic's famous article, "The Featherston Files". The battery is confirmed by former Freedom Party members, members of the Confederate President staff, and Great War veterans to be the same battery of the First Richmond Howitzers that Featherston (soldier in the foreground with head his turned away from the camera) commanded during the First Great War. This photo was taken at the Battle of Round Hill in 1917 before a gas attack, the same battle where Featherston ordered retreating colored soldiers to be fired upon, something that wouldn't be fully known till after the fall of the C.S.A.
