You mean General Heth, right?Johnnyreb wrote: General Heath by the way, claimed he took his division to Gettyburg looking for shoes. Even though he knew very well that another Confederate division had passed through the town the day before and that there would be no shoes to be found. He went looking for a fight, what Lee had told him not to do.
On the Federal side, I think that command of the Army of the Potomac should have gone to W.S. Hancock instead of George Meade.
