This attack will be forever known as "Pickett's Charge". It was the Confederate attack on the Union center on Cemetery Ridge. The South would of won this battle but Robert E. Lee did not listen to General Longstreet. If he did the South would maybe win the War. Longstreet saw a gap and wanted to get forces there towards Washington.

What was important about the US Civil War Battle of Gettysburg?
The importance of the US Civil War Battle of Gettysburg cannot be underestimated. If General Lee's Army of Northern Virginia had defeated the Union army of the Potomac, there was nothing between Gettysburg and Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Occupying that major Northern city would have only intensified the worst civil insurrection in US history. It may be recalled that President Lincoln sent 20,000 troops from Gettysburg to end the draft riots. The Northern repercussions would have been incalculable.
