Pietro, that’s Thomas Jackson..

Thanks for the correction, I wasn't sure, but Lee certainly wasn't such the genius after old Stonewall was gone.

Imagine Jackson on the right at Gettysburg instead of Longstreet.

No prob...and there is some question as to the “J” for his middle name...I read a great bio on him awhile back and would say yeah, if he hadn’t been done in so early,things might have been different.
I look at Jackson as the spiritual guide for the Army of Northern Virginia but Lee as the heart and soul of the Army. He was, if nothing else, an honorable man...
This from a great-great granddaughter of a Confederate hero!
