GDG- Gettysburg The second day

[keith mackenzie]

In hind sight, of course Lee should have adapted his style to accommodate the change
  but both new commanders had excellent performance reviews, though Hills probably started with... "Nice guy, bit of a flake.." Lee had to work with what he had, He had neither the time nor the opportunity to test his organization on lesser goals.  It was all or nothing, and he committed to that, without reservation, and without excuse. To his eternal credit.

<< Pfanz also covers Lee's reorganization of the ANV. The Anv, with an 
entirely new command Heirarchy, and the Aop with a new General commanding, 
but, for all intents and purpose, the same structure. It would seem, and I 
think that thats what Pfanz is saying in the last paragragh, that the only 
"veteren" army on the field was the AoP , while the ANV with all it's 
experience, was an untested organization.

An excellent point.
Should this have called for any changes to Lee's accustomed style of 
command? If so, was he likely to have made any changes?
