I will start with talking about the pickett’s charge…..

The picketts charge was a major assualt ordered by confederate Gen and Robert Lee against Maj.Gen and the union of George Meades posiontion his union on the cemetary ridge july 3,1863 the last day of the battle of Gettysburg which took place during the civil war.The assualt in a way was predicted by Gen James Longstreet and was not avoidable after the assualt people never fully recoverd mentally.The farthest point reached by the attack has been referred to the high water mark of confedaracy.The charge is named after Maj. Gen. George Pickett one of the three confederates who led the assualt on Gen longstreet.This is comparable to the way people feel wanting to rebel against people effected them wrongfully.This connects to alot of situations that occured in the civil war.
