bouquets serving superintendent of west point. 1857 to 1861, he was lieutenant colonel of the second calvarynd for a brief period, he was the colonel of the first u.s. capitol. then the outbreak of the civil war, he was offered themed command of the united states forces dealing with secessionist states. at that moment, he turned his back on more than 30 years of service command, first the virginia state forces bent rentable confederate army, the army of northern virginia. almost nothing in those proceeding 30 years has the slightest hint of the decision he made the army to forswear his oath to defend the united states he first took upon commissioning in 1829. to refuse what what have been the pinnacle of his military career. as mary chest discovered, nothing so characterizes robert e lee as the question. why? why did he do what he did, why was he the man he was? 's general answer in 1861 that big decision about refusing command of the federal forces was that he was in virginia and when virginia was different, he was obliged to follow virginia into the confederacy. one was he? hello robert e

from the west heading to the east are starting to put some pressure, they are facing off with greg's calvary, providing a nice screen for warren's infantry, but he kepts pushing to the south, getting almost to the north carolina border and i'm going to do my best to pronounce this river, i think it is called the maharen river. right. they get close to the river. there is really a feeble assault that warren made against some confederate fortifications that held by home guard. these are not seasoned troops. this feeble assault was easily repulsed. i'm not sure how that figured into warren's thinking. he was mostly concerned about his extended position south of petersburg. he's a long away from his home base and he decides to turn around and make his way back to petersburg. it is my hunch and it is only a hunch, it could never be proven, that the people of sussex county thought that is the last they would see of union soldiers, they are heading south and to north carolina but they would turn around and come back but that is exactly what they did. as they return back to sussex and up to petersbu
