General Bragg was the over all commander of the Army of the Tennessee. However, General Longstreet's Corps had been sent from Virginia and arrived on the eve of the Battle of Chickamauga on 17 Sept 1863, which was only a few months after the loss at Gettysburg. General Longstreet had given an order for General Hood to attack at the same time that General Wood shifted his men that left a hole in the Union line. This resulted in a break-through of the Union line and a collapse of the entire Union right wing.
