As Union General John Pope was about to enter the huge Second Battle of Bull Run, he had a number of advantages. His army outnumbered the Confederates and his artillery was far superior. In addition, his Army of Virginia was growing as Federal troops from General McClellan's army were reinforcing Pope's army.
