General Meade (New respondent...) That was the common perception, as Grant travelled alongside Meade's army in a mobile HQ. But the facts are that Grant suceeded Henry Halleck as General-in-Chief, and Meade continued as commander of the Army of the Potomac.

But Lee was also General-in-Chief, and Grant decided that one General-in-Chief should surrender to his opposite number.
