In the April/May 1863 Battle of Chancellorsville, the Confederacy won a battle against a much larger army thanks to the superior leadership of General Robert E. Lee. Through this victory, it gained increased confidence in its military ability while also turning back yet another attempted Union invasion of the South. It also lost one of its most respected and skilled officers, General "Stonewall" Jackson, who was killed by friendly fire during the battle.
After his defeat at the Battle of Chancellorsville in May 1863, General Joseph Hooker faced significant criticism for his leadership. He was ultimately relieved of command of the Army of the Potomac and replaced by General George Meade. Hooker continued to serve in various roles for the Union Army, including a brief command in the Western Theater, but he never returned to a prominent command position. His reputation suffered due to the loss at Chancellorsville, which was considered a major Confederate victory.
