In the American Civil War's Battle of Gettysburg, the key leaders at the top level for each side were the following: On the Union side, Major General George Meade was the top commander, with a variety of capable lower-ranking officers in positions of influence during the battle.

Several of his corps commanders should also be mentioned, as they had important (and generally negative, as the results would show) influence on the battle: Lt. General James Longstreet and Lt.

There is no such rank as Brigade General. You're probably thinking of Brigadier General. Brigadier General is a one star rank, whereas Major General is a two star rank. Usually, a Brigade will be commanded by a Colonel, although it's not unheard of for a Brigadier General to be in command of a brigade. However, more often than not, they'll serve as a deputy to the Division Commander (who would usually be a Major General).
The Brigadier General is a "one star" general.
He became a Brigadier General in 1838.
