Do you know these people? each clue is a dfferent person... also, they are from the civil war?

-master at battle strategy, his men revered him





-superb at getting his green troops trained as soliers, he was maddeningly reluctant to go into battle. Nickname: the Virginia Creeper





- dashing cavalry leader fond of plumed hats and flowering cloaks; he let Lee down, perhaps critically, at Gettysburg





-He's the man Robert E. Lee depended on as his second in command-"old Pete"-or, as Lee said, "my old horse"





-a believer in total warfare and plain speaker, he said of war, "it is all heck" Nickname: Uncle Billy





-The Napoleon of the South, "who directed his troops to a big, early win, at Bull Run/ Manassas





-"Little Pete" led his forces as they destroyed the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia





-Vain, bad tempered general, he commanded at Gettysburg but failed to attack retreating confederate forces and finish them off





-he held his men fast at the first battle of Bull run, and so earned the name of Rock wall
