For most of the Confederate Generals at the Battle of Gettysburg,
they knew they would be fighting a losing battle because of the strategic location of the Union Army. However,
every general obeyed their orders and were willing to make the supreme sacrifice to achieve the ultimate victory.

Not for fame or reward,
Not for place or for rank,
Not lured by ambition,
Or goaded by necessity,
But in
Simple
Obedience to Duty
As they understood it,
These men suffered all,
Sacrificed all,
Dared all--and died.
