 | Battle of Gettysburg - "The enemy is here!" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Gettysburg After finally pushing back Buford's dismounted cavalry, and forcing the Union First Corp, the "Black Hats" to withdraw, the Confederate army is ready to enter Gettysburg. As shown, Longstreet wants the army to disengage, march south, and attempt to cut off the Union army from their supply lines. The problem with this is General Stuart has yet to return with the cavalry, leaving the Confederates blind. There are two entire Union corps unaccounted for, and can spring forward at any moment if a south-ward march is attempted. Lee believes that he can force Meade, supreme commander of the Army of the Potomac, to attack Lee directly, or otherwise dislodge him with multi-pronged attacks on their flanks. Much of Lee's chances for success depend on Ewell taking Cemetary Hill, which as you hear in the clip, Ewell not only fails to do, but does not even attempt to do. According to General Isaac Trimble and others, the Hill was empty, and could have been occupied by Confederate forces early on. Instead, Ewell hesitated, and the Union was able to entrench atop the hill overnight. Longstreet remains convinced that their best strategy is to disengage, march south, and force the Union army to follow them towards Washington, where they can be fought on ground of Lee's own choosing, as they have done in every major engagement before. Instead, as Longstreet claims in the clip, Lee is forced to attack Meade directly, on terrific ground for the Union army, at tremendous cost to the Army of Northern Virginia. |

 | The Battle of Fredericksburg (Part 1: The Evacuation) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Battle_of_Fredericksburg Now under the command of General Ambrose Burnside, the Army of the Potomac aims to once again invade and destroy Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. This time, Lee's army is spread out along Fredericksburg. Burnside needs only to cross his army across the river and attack the fractured Confederate army. If that had truly happened, you wouldn't be watching this video now. In one of many instances of sheer incompetency and sluggishness on the part of General Burnside, he rejected General Hancock's plan to move a division across the river to secure a bridgefront, saying he would wait for the pontoon bridges to arrive before crossing. This gave Robert E. Lee all the time he needed to bring much of his army together, and station picket troops along the banks of the Rappahannock from where the Union forces would be marching. Civilians were still in the city when the Union began turning artillery weapons on the city in an attempt to drive Confederate skirmishers out, and battles began taking place in the streets, while Burnside's troops massed into the city, and Lee's troops occupied Marye's heights. Before any arguing starts, let me say on my own that I fully and wholeheartedly believe that despite Robert Duvall's familial ties to the Lee family, I firmly believe Martin Sheen is a far superior Robert Edward Lee than Robert Duvall. |
 | Stonewall Jackson Thomas Jonathan "Stonewall" Jackson (January 21,[1] 1824 -- May 10, 1863) was a Confederate general during the American Civil War. He is most famous for his audacious Valley Campaign of 1862 and as a corps commander in the Army of Northern Virginia under General Robert E. Lee. His own troops accidentally shot him at the battle of Chancellorsville and he died of complications from an amputated arm and pneumonia several days later. Military historians consider Jackson to be one of the most gifted tactical commanders in United States history. His Valley Campaign and his envelopment of the Union Army right wing at Chancellorsville are studied worldwide even today as examples of innovative and bold leadership. He excelled as well at the First Battle of Bull Run (where he received his famous nickname), Second Bull Run, Antietam, and Fredericksburg. Jackson was not universally successful as a commander, however, as displayed by his weak and confused efforts during the Seven Days Battles around Richmond in 1862. His death was a severe setback for the Confederacy, affecting not only its military prospects, but the morale of its army and the general public; as Jackson lay dying, General Robert E. Lee stated, "He has lost his left arm; I have lost my right." |

 | Pickett's Charge (Part 5: The Aftermath) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pickett%27s_Charge#Aftermath Robert Edward Lee, commanding the Army of Northern Virginia, suffered his most devastating and total defeat with the failure of what would come to be known as Pickett's Charge. Due primarily to the Southern artillery overshooting their targets, the artillery failing to mass after the premature engagement at Culp's Hill, the glorious Napoleonic assault Lee envisioned would crush the Union center and split their lines in two never came to pass, as over half the 13,000 or so men involved on the Confederate side were killed, wounded, missing, or captured. Worst of all was the loss of high ranking officers. General Lewis "Lothario" Armistead was shot, and died some days later in a Union field hospital. General Richard Brooke Garnett, wounded some time earlier by his horse and forced to ride to the top, was killed, General James Kemper was grievously wounded, but survived. Only General Pickett and General Longstreet, watching from the rear, were unharmed. Recognizing his mistake too late, Lee mourned, and begged the forgiveness of his troops, claiming "It is all my fault. General Pickett never forgave Lee for ordering the charge, and when Lee came to order Pickett to look to his Division, Pickett famously responded, "General Lee... I have no Division." After three days fighting, Robert E Lee was defeated, and for the first time since taking command of the Army of Northern Virginia in 1862, left the Union army in command of the field. The Army of Northern Virginia was finished as a fighting force. During the battle, General Ulysses Grant and his Army of the Tennessee forced the Confederate stronghold of Vicksburg to surrender, a major victory which, in concert with the defeat at Gettysburg, effectively ended all major offensive operations against the Union. |
 | When Johnny Comes Marching Home Noted Bandmaster Patrick Gilmore wrote the lyrics for this tune when his band was attached to the 24th Massachusetts Infantry. The tune is the same as the Irish song "Johnny, I Hardly Knew Ye" but there is some dispute as to which came first. "Johnny" did not refer to "Johnny Reb" but most likely Gilmore's future brother-in-law, a Union army officer. The story behind the song is on the Library of Congress website. http://lcweb2.loc.gov/diglib/ihas/loc.natlib.ihas.200000024/default.html The first page of the song (Louis Lambert was a pseudonym of Gilmore's) bears a dedication at the top "to the army and the navy of the Union". This was not a Confederate song. http://www.gutenberg.org/files/21566/21566-h/images/johnnycover.png |
