... hard drill and harder work(Ratchford, 11).� The weather varied a lot during the Civil War. At times it would snow up to depths of eight inches and sometimes it would rain and hail for hours on end(Russell, 130). Other times it would be very hot.

Stalin did not inquire about the specifics of this "new weapon" as he showed no special interest in it.
