Heck how about bumping Barksdale over a couple of folks? Though I am sure
that would have really created hard feelings.. But war isn't about massaging
egos, about winning......

One has  to wonder how much Lee's penchant for placing Virginians in command
over  well-qualified personnel from other states had to do with Hill's
selection  as corps commander (not to mention Ewell whose health was also
marginal at  best).



Tom:
 
Which Generals from outside the Commonwealth would you have put in corps  
command? DH Hill? McLaws?
