I don’t think Lee could be expected to come up with an answer

Great point -- it was a difficult problem. The Germans in WW1 came up with assault tactics that involved infiltration tactics, storm troopers, mission command, and artillery "creeping barrages", but they had a rich organizational structure developed over decades to allow such experimentation. The Confederate Army was basically created just as their war began.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
