I have read where Grant most regretted the Federal assault at Cold Harbor.
Grant's offensive against Cold Harbor aiming to outflank the Confederate position behind the Totopotomoy River forced Lee to extend southward his defensive line for further 12 kilometres to prevent the menace. His counter-move was successful but the vital position of Cold Harbor remained in Unionist's hand and Lee's freedom of movement turned out to be further reduced, which meant a prize for Grant's strategy.
At the beginning of the Battle of Cold Harbor, General in Chief US Grant sent generals Winfred Hancock, Horatio Wright and William Smith and their respective corps in the initial assault against the Confederate fortifications at Cold Harbor.

Grant commanded the Union. Lee commanded the Confederacy.
