February 11th Video Discussion: George Picket, in Life and Legend

Longacre in his biography cut Pickett a break for his position on July 3rd saying it was the proper place for a division commander to be directing the movements of the brigades
 
five forks to me is totally unforgivable in his command position. gttysburg he gets a pass because he had nothing to do with the planning
 
Heck, eventually Pettigrew dies in action and trimble loses a leg and is captured. Pickett sulks.
 
there in information out that lee booted him the army before Appomattox and was surprised to see him there.
 
Well it has to be that Longstreet protected him for being around as long as he was. Whenever Lee didn't want someone he made Joe Johnstons's problem
