Wait I forget did Lee order Picket to charge or was that Picket being a complete dumbass?
Lee ordered the charge. Longstreet cautioned against it, Pickett just carried it out.
Pickett probably:
IIRC he lived and resented Lee the rest of his life.
Pickett: "guess we're fighting uphill, me boys"
🤣
I'm fucking dyin' this has to be the stupidest shit ever said.
Same thing happened to the Union at Fredericksburg. Arguably worse.
Union troops at Gettysburg started changing "Fredericksburg, Fredericksburg" as Pickett started up the hill, for a reason...
Something something learn from mistakes of others.
