Wait I forget did Lee order Picket to charge or was that Picket being a complete dumbass?

Lee ordered the charge. Longstreet cautioned against it, Pickett just carried it out.

Pickett probably:

IIRC he lived and resented Lee the rest of his life.

Same thing happened to the Union at Fredericksburg. Arguably worse.
Union troops at Gettysburg started changing "Fredericksburg, Fredericksburg" as Pickett started up the hill, for a reason...

Fun Civil War fact: Lee was absent from class at West Point the day they discussed not fighting uphill. He skipped class to participate in a drinking contest with none other than a young Ulysses S. Grant.
