in fact, it's a 10 dozen attack on july 3rd, he may soon have to be on july 4th.i can't give you a definitive answer on pickett's charge in that sense. i can do what lee said to tell you what he did. i probably asked more than he could deliver. i think that's right. to think that he had to believe they could take that position because if he did not believe that they could take perry rich on july 3rd after what they had done july 2nd, they came very close to a second. but it is a different army at the potomac they are fighting as one surgeon with the later. we are aligned by jackasses. there were fewer at gettysburg than there were prior to that. take out the leadership they deserve there. it's a sense of invincibility. it is the sense that whatever i've asked these vents to do, they have done for me. one thing you can't calculate busy right about northern virginia, how do you calculate the fighting spirit of these men? you can't measure it, but it's there. there was something about the confederate infantry others would write about. longstreet would say later i do
