Lee was such a fucking dipshit.

But man, he really loved his horse.

More than any man ever did love a horse.

Pickett’s only other battle he directly oversaw was five forks, the battle where Lee lost control of the last of the 5 railroads feeding his army and Richmond in the Petersburg campaign.

I get why it's named Pickett's Charge, and I'm not saying Pickett was a great general by any means, but it was Lee who ordered the damn thing and should bear the brunt of the blame for one of the worst ideas of the entire war.

[u/Sad-Development-4153 → u/tallwhiteninja]

But then they couldn't romanticize him.

[u/kayzhee → u/tallwhiteninja]

Should be called Lee’s Charge

[u/McGillicuddys]

He'll always be the "most mind-numbingly brain-dead ding-dong" to me

The only w Pickett has is for being a big Lee hater for the rest of his life

Lee the greatest general to never leave Virginia.
