General George B. McClellan
I am thinking it is General Robert E. Lee and General George B. McClellan. Not sure, but, heard from my teacher.
Based on his previous actions, and not just those at Antietam, Lincoln fired Major General George McClellan as general-in-chief of the Union armies and replaced him as commander of the Army of the Potomac with Ambrose Burnside.Lincoln was likely prompted by what he saw as the indecisive, overcautious nature of McClellan, who at Antietam thought that he was outnumbered when it was very much the reverse.
George McClellan
George McClellan was a major Union general during the American Civil War. He organized the Army of the Potomac and served briefly as the general in chief of the Union Army. Earlier in the war, he played an important role in raising a well-trained and organized army for the Union. Although his plans were meticulous, McClellan often overestimated the strength of enemy units and was reluctant to apply principles of mass, which meant that he often left parts of his army unengaged at decisive points. McClellan's leadership skills during battle were questioned by President Lincoln. This led to Lincoln removing McClellan from his command, first as general in chief and then from the Army of the Potomac.
