There is a very famous story, that while Lee and Jackson are riding thru Maryland, Lee spots a soldier carrying off a pig, from a farm. Lee orders Jackson to have the man shot. Stonewall tells the man that he will put him in the thickest of the fighting in the engagement at Sharpsburg, telling him that he will have a chance to serve his country AND save his "bacon" at the same time......
This could be fictional, but it clearly demonstrates Lee's feelings on the subject.
If the story is fictional then how can you say it represents Lee's feelings on anything?
