Best Answer

Many historians point to General Lee's blunder in attacking the Union center on the third day of the Battle of Gettysburg as one example where tactical defensive thinking was swept aside with the hopes of gaining a victory. The other major such battle was when General Grant made serious errors with his frontal assaults on Confederate entrenchments at the Battle of Cold Harbor in 1864.For the most part, the majority of generals on both sides of the conflict adhered to the Clausewitz doctrine of winning a battle by using a tactical defense to mount a counter attack against an enemy.
