...Truer words were never spoken, Borg. Quite possibly Lee's greatest victory - and his greatest loss, as he watched Stonewall Jackson cross over the river, and rest in the shade of the trees. The Almighty alone knows what would have happened had Jackson advanced upon Gettysburg seven weeks later at Lee's side.
