Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Correct History of Pope, McDowell, and Fitz John Porter at the Second Battle of Bull Run, August 29, 1862 Report of Gcncrah Schojield caul Terry and Colonel Getty. From the report of the board of officers General Schofield, General Terr, and Colonel Getty convened to examine and report on the evidence on which General Porter was cashiered, it appears, (page 3,) in their own words, that "While the Army of the Potomac was withdrawing from its position on the James River in August, 1862, the Army of Virginia under General Pope was ordered to hold the line of the Rappahannock, and to stand on the defensive until all the forces could be united behind that river. "General Pope was given to understand that when this concentration was effected Major-General Hal leek, the commander-in-chief, was to take the field in command of the combined armies. On the other hand, it appears that General McClellan, of the Army of the Potomac, was given to understand that he was to direct the operations of all the forces in Virginia as soon as they should be united. It appears further, that on the 25th of August Pope was Secretly informed that an active or offensive campaign was immediately to be commenced without any union of the forces, and under some other commander than Halleck or McClellan. Which commander turned out to be himself, or really McDowell, by whom the orders, and evidence, and operations plainly prove that they were misdirected and bedevilled for the next five days 26 th to 30th August.
