Anabasis edit

the edit changed this page from a redirect to a disambiguation. But it would seem to me that this is a misunderstanding of anabasis, if anything it would be a katabasis (as in katabatic wind). The trouble is that anabasis and katabasis also carry connotations of advance and retreat, so Sherman's advance to the sea is not usually described as a katabasis. So all in all I think we should delete the anabasis reference. --PBS (talk) 14:02, 13 January 2009 (UTC)Reply
