What was one positive factor for the Union at the US Civil War Battle of the Second Bull Run?
At the US Civil War Battle of the Second Bull Run, one positive result, even in defeat was the fact that the Union's loss could not be attributed to fielding an inexperienced army as was the case in the First Battle of Bull Run. Union General Pope's Army of the Potomac was experienced. Pope provided for an effective rear guard, and with fresh forces lending its support and the army was successful in evading the Confederate pursuit. At least the Army of the Potomac was well prepared if a defeat was seen. And, yes it was a defeat, but not as embarrassing as the First Bull Run.
Why was the Battle of Bull Run so shocking?
The Battle of Bull Run July 21st 1861 (also referred to as the Battle of Manassas) was the first real battle of the civil war. There was a battle previous, The battle of Fort Sumter, but no one died so it wasn't anything more than symbolic. The battle of Bull Run was actually quite brutal. here are the statistics. Union casualties were 460 killed, 1,124 wounded, and 1,312 missing or captured; Confederate casualties were 387 killed, 1,582 wounded, and 13 missing the real surprise was the fact that the union (who thought they were vastly superior and supplied) had lost the first battle of the war. Things would only really go down hill for the union until Gettysburg where Lee would begin to get pushed back south.
