Perfect example of leadership. Presenting the problem, explaining why it happened and how to avoid it. He doesn't have to threaten with any consequences, just with his choice of words and tone General Stuart understands how grave his failure truly was. All in all, imo it cements that Lee in this scene is skirting around the word, "failure". As a mistake is accidental, what Stuart did was fail to act, whether by not properly understanding his purpose in Lee's army, or any other seemingly small factor that led to his circumstances.

Lee was a man of character. I love a story about him where one day in church, after the war, when there were both blacks and whites in the church. When the time for communion came the first person to approach the alter and kneel was a older black man. No one else went forward for what must have seemed like an eternity. The church was absolutely quiet. After a minute or two a white man then approached the altar and knelt next the the African American. It was Robert E. Lee. After he knelt the rest of the people in the church as one went forward to receive communion together! He was a man of character!

Had Stuart been out in front of Lees Army as he should have been? It would have been Stuart and his Cavalry who would have encountered Buford on Day 1 instead of the hapless General Heth and the Clueless A.P Hill??? It would have been at worst a day long Cavalry engagement and both Armies would not have used Gettysburg as concentration point. Meade would have likey established his line along Pipe Creek and went on the defense covering all routes to Washington and Baltimore. Lee would have had a major decision to move against Meade's line along Pipe Creek or keep moving North and capture Harrisburg. The Whole nature of the War would have been changed. But Stuart was not there and it cost The South the War. Lee also deserves much blame for Pickett's Charge, a Charge that never should have been attempted.

That's as close as I cold come to Lee's orders not to force an engagement until the whole army is up and concentrated (again, 20/20 hindsight).

If Lee has simply keep moving North, he would have connected with Straut around Charlie or York Pennsylvania. The Confederates had already achieved a spectacular success by marching into Pennsylvania and stealing several days march on the Federal Army that was in the midst of a command change and reorganization. General Ewell in Command of Stonewall Jackson's Famed Foot Cavalry had already made it as far as York and was looking across the River at the Capital Harrisburg and preparing to take the State Captial when the Urgent Order arrived from Lee to abandon that effort and march South to Gettysburg to reconnect with the rest of the Army. Thus, setting in motion Buford's stand and the meeting engagement which became the devastating and costly Battle of Gettysburg. If Lee had simply told A.P. Hill to push on and keep moving, he could have easily brushed Buford's cavalry aside and the Federal Army could have not caught up to Lee for at least 3-4 more days. By that time Lee if he moved with purpose could have concentrated on good defensive ground around Charlie or York or even crossed the river and seized Harrisburg which was defended only by a handful of untested state militia. Also, Straut expected Lee to be around Charlie and naturally rode to that spot missing Lee by over a day and then having to track South himself and not catching up the Army until July 2nd at which time due to Lee's aggressiveness was embroiled and tangled in a meeting engagement that offered no assurance for Victory. The Blame is squarely on Lee and to a large extent A.P Hill who was not at the front and sent in only part of one division to probe Buford giving him time to make a defensive stand when he had more than enough force to crush him or push his aside with ease.

is the confederate generals spent more time on thinking and less on cultivating facial hair, they might have done better

Lee knew exactly how to discipline without destroying. He told Stuart exactly what he did wrong, but didn't overdo it. Then he defused any ill feelings by complimenting him on his qualities and abilities as a cavalry commander. That is communication of the highest order.

Did anyone else notice that even though Lee called Taylor a Major, he is actually wearing two stars of a Lt. Colonel.
@LesHaskell3 ай бұрын
Lee is wearing the three stars of a full Colonel. There is no General's wreath around them.

Great scene, and incredible acting by Sheen. But it probably never happened in reality. Neither Lee nor Stuart wrote about it.

The worse part for a man like Stuart or any person is letting down someone you admire most in the world.

The shame is that the war had to happen - slavery is a sin, one of the worst things mankind's done, and we've done some evil shit. The fact that so many people had to die to end such an abominable institution is indeed a shame.

@@johnfinck288 : Sin is a religious concept. The Bible, in Jesus' time and earlier, had slavery as a normal thing. So, slavery is not a sin, just a bad thing to have.

Lee's orders were ambiguous. Stuart was weighed down by wagons of loot he had captured; loot was one of the reasons they invaded the north.

Saluting without a hat is not done in the Canadian and commonwealth military you simply stand at attention before a superior officer but is common practice with the American military.
