The commanders that served during the Civil War on both the Union and Confederate sides, were called Generals. On the Union side his name was Ulysses S. Grant and on the Confederate side it was Robert E. Lee.
Robert Anderson was the commanding officer for the Union during the Battle of Fort Sumter, and P. G. T. Beauregard was the Confederate commander. The battle resulted in a victory for the Confederacy.
The loss of the Confederate Fort Donelson was due in part of the ineptness of the Rebel commanders. Their commanders divided their forces in such a manner that allowed General Grant an easier path to victory.
