The charge is named after Maj. Gen. George Pickett, one of three Confederate generals who led the assault under Longstreet.
After Confederate attacks on both Union flanks had failed the day and night before, Lee was determined to strike the Union center on the third day. On the night of July 2, Meade correctly predicted at a council of war that Lee would try an attack on his lines in the center the following morning.
On July 3, 1863, Robert E. Lee ordered 12,500 of his men across the open fields of Gettysburg towards the Union position on Seminary Ridge. Garry Adelman details the famous attack.
