I have always found it oddly wholesome that these two huwhite titans (Sherman and Forrest) went from fierce adversaries to total bros following the American Civil War, partially due to the fact that they were both incredibly racist students of war who (upon meeting at the request of a popular newspaper) discovered that they actually had quite a lot in common.
Sherman even referred to General Nathan Bedford Forrest as "one of the greatest men to emerge from the conflict" and even wrote him multiple letters of recommendation.
