Names do matter.
For example, you will no longer find Custer Battlefield National Monument on a map. Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument is a much more fitting name since it honors all who fought there.
Maybe it is time for a new name for the third day charge, one that honors all instead of just Pickett and Virginia.
What better place to kick around possible replacement names than right here.
Since it was Lee's idea, I think Lee's Charge would be a more fitting name.
