Why did fighting in Vietnam turn into a stalemate by the mid-1960s?
Unless the US "invaded" North Vietnam...or used the "bomb" (nuclear weapons)...the war was un-winnable. This was realized after the fighting began to escalate instead of de-escalate as the years went by. In the beginning, the US thought that they could "kill them off" (the enemy) with the use of "good ole Yankee firepower"...after TET of '68, that plan was canned.
How did continued fighting turn the tide of the civil war?
Every month that went by, the Confederates, recruiting from a much smaller population, were finding it harder to maintain their armies at fighting strength. After Grant became the Union General-in-Chief in March 1864, he ended the system of prisoner-exchange, to exploit this advantage to the full. The war ended when Lee's battle-lines were simply too thin to hold.
What general was appointed by Lincoln because he knew how to fight?
Two in particular. Lincoln promoted Grant more than once, against resistance from Grant's enemies. He said "I can't spare this man. He fights." Lincoln also promoted Joe Hooker on the grounds that he was a fighter by nature, and he turned out to be that, and more - a very good organiser and morale-raiser. (Ironically, Hooker objected to his nickname 'Fighting Joe', which had been mistakenly written by a clerk, with the two words linked in error. At that time, an officer could be reprimanded for 'fighting' (meaning unruly punch-ups in barracks.)
