After the end of the US Civil War, former Lieutenant General applied for a pardon. He visited Washington DC and spoke with General US Grant, Secretary of War Stanton and President Andrew Johnson. Johnson informed Longstreet that three former Confederates he would never pardon were Longstreet, Robert E. Lee and Jefferson Davis.
