What Union general wrote about the Fredericksburg battlefield “I never before felt so horribly since I was born. To see men dashed to pieces by shot & torn into shreds by shells during the heat and crash of battle is bad enough God knows, but to walk alone amongst slaughtered brave in the "still small hours" of the night would make the bravest man living "blue". God grant I may never have to repeat my last night's experience.” Note - it is doubtful he ever did as 6-1/2 months later he would be killed in battle.
