...McClellan’s Influence and Role During the Civil War Chad Hoskins 4446301 MILH 542 Professor Steven Sledge American Public University March 15, 2015 1 Many men during the Civil War made huge contributions that effected their respective sides cause. Some for the worse and some for the better. Battles can be broke down, strategic moves dissected, and even personnel moves debated. But individual men are examined on how they influenced armies, battles, and even their leaders. With that mentioned, George B. McClellan, a great military mind and strategist, perhaps is looked as one of the great leaders during the Civil War who could have made better decisions, change certain outcomes, and maybe even retained the confidence of President Lincoln. George B. McClellan came from a very prominent family who lived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. (1) George was born December 3, 1826 to Dr. George McClellan who had founded Jefferson Medical College. George’s mother was Elizabeth Sophia Steinmetz Brinton McClellan who came from a leading family in the Philadelphia area. George was the third of five children and had a passion for law. At the young age of 13 he attended the University of Pennsylvania. After just two years of studying law, McClellan changed his focus to military service. Now young George B. McClellan was only 15 at the time when he entered the United States Military Academy in 1842. It took a letter from his father to President John Tyler...

...was constantly an issue. Within the Union, various generals were found at times to be at odds with the political leaders in Washington. This was especially evident in the relationship between General George McClellan and President Lincoln. This tension was the result of McClellan’s approach to waging war. By examining the differing approaches to waging war of U.S. Grant and George B. McClellan one can gain a better appreciation for the decision making that was necessary by leaders like Lincoln, in selecting military generals who could effectively wage war to defeat the Confederacy. By all accounts, George B. McClellan had the makings of a great general. Graduating second in his class at West Point in 1842, he served under General Winfield Scott in the Mexican War. (McPherson, 1988, p. 4) He also served with distinction early in the war by assuring that Kentucky and the region that would become West Virginia, remained out of Confederate control. (McPherson, 1988, pp. 299-301) After the Union loss at the First Battle of Bull Run, McClellan was named commander of the Army of the Potomac, and by November 1861, he was the General-in-Chief of all Federal forces. (McPherson, 1988, pp. 348-350) McClellan’s approach to waging war was one of the cautious tactician. He was quite adept at assembling forces and the supply lines necessary to sustain those forces. After being named the commander of the Army of the Potomac, McClellan set to work to prepare his troops, still stinging...

...Sara Watson HIST 1301-325 Trail of Tears Major General Winfield Scott arrived May 8 to take command of the military operation of the removal of the Cherokee Indians. His May 10, 1838 address to the Cherokee people basically said that the president had sent him with an army to make them obey the Treaty of 1835 to move to the other side of the Mississippi. He says that they need to leave with haste but hopefully without disorder. Scott states that his troops are coming to help “assist” the Cherokees if they are refusing or not leaving fast enough. Scott really did want them to leave without having to shed any blood or have any resistance. Scott had told his troops to be kind to the Cherokees and compatible with their removal. His intentions were humane but the larger portion of his army was state levies unaccustomed to discipline and without his professional susceptibilities. Most of the Cherokee to be removed were inhabitants of Georgia and their apprehension was conducted by Georgia militia who had long as a matter of policy been habituated to dealing harshly with Indians. Cherokee were to be herded and confined while awaiting transportation west. There was little to no likelihood of attempted resistance. Within days nearly 17000 Cherokee had been crowded into the stockades. Sanitation measures were inadequate and many inmates sickened. Many lost any will to live and lost all glimmer of hope. In the first and second weeks of June 2 detachments of some 800 exiles...

...Native Americans ( Cherokee) Randall Cartright Eth/125 January/29/2012 Don Yost Abstract Native Americans ( Cherokee) They have faced migration, and annexation. Consequences: Extermination ( almost), expulsion, and segregation. Trail of Tears How? How could a horror have come from such an innocent act? A child sells a trader a rock. But greed unrestricted fears no God. And it has an appetite that can never be satiated. It has been my fate to have been involved in, and an observer of a nation turning it’s back on all of it’s most noble principles. How you recover from that will be left to posterity and the great Judge of all to address. For me it started when I was a young man back in the Smokey Mountain region of Tennessee. I was selected to go with the great Chief Junaluska to fight with the United States soldiers against the Creek. The Creek nation had aligned themselves with the invading British. Who could have believed that such bravery would be repaid someday with such treachery? It was Chief Junalusk’s idea alone to capture the Creek’s canoes at the battle of Horse Shoe and cut of their only means of retreat. It was Chief Junaluska’s quick action that saved Andrew Jackson’s life. I heard Andrew Jackson say to Chief Junaluska:” As long as the sun shines and the grass grows, there will be friendship between us, and the feet of the Cherokee shall be toward the east.” How quickly would those words become a mockery to the...

...The expression “Give her an inch, and she will take a mile, ” does not even begin to describe me. I am more like “ Give me an inch, and I will take a whole country and conquer it.” I have overcome so many hardships in my life. I started off with a Christian faith based girl. Who loved everyone, and did not care what people thought. A girl whose family meant more to her than water. A girl that didn’t know the evils of the world until she was sent out into the crossfire to experience it first-hand. A girl who would have never thought in her desolate dreams that she would soon turn her back on everything she ever believed in. In my previous years, this war was just a game to me. It tested me, tempted me, teased me, and even at times ripped me apart. I never once realized how much destruction it could cause not only in the lives of my family, but as well as my own. During my freshman year, I felt like a new recruit. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I had no inkling about the people I would meet, or the enemies I would make. No indication that success meant having to study every night. No clue that my faith would be tested in every way possible. Not even the slightest notion that the people I love most would be the people I would soon be pushing away. I didn’t expect to be so tired and worn out. Waking up at ridiculous hours of the morning; the foolish acts the school cast upon us, like weekly and sometimes daily metal detector checks. Honestly, I did not know what to...

...Rookard The Fifteenth Amendment and President Ulysses S. Grant The fifteenth amendment of the united states was made to create equal opportunity for voters in America without being discriminated against. I believe one of the good things Grant is known for was creating the first park – Yellowstone National Park – bringing together federal lands in Wyoming, Idaho and Montana. I think the 15th amendment was a good idea because it overturned the preexisting statute prohibiting African-American citizens of the United States from suffrage so any previous station of servitude or slavery undertaken by any individual was immaterial with regard to the right to vote. The third reason I think that both the 15th amendment and Grant are good is because he successfully carried out his plan to integrate blacks, guarantee their rights, and support equality may be this: during Grant’s eight years in office, the South went from being half Republican to nearly entirely Democratic. The reason I support the 15th Amendment is because it was difficult to pass due to racism and prejudice in the south and Grant’s presidency, which he thought that having the votes of African Americans was more important for the future of the republican party, especially if it was able to be passed and he ran for a second election he’d win for sure, because he supported equal rights among voters although the abolishment of slavery started not long before its’ ratification.

...de objetos que interactúan entre sí. Este enfoque representa un dominio en términos de conceptos compuestos por verbos y sustantivos, clasificados de acuerdo a su dependencia funcional. En este método de análisis y diseño se crea un conjunto de modelos utilizando una notación acordada como, por ejemplo, el lenguaje unificado de modelado (UML). ADOO aplica técnicas de modelado de objetos para analizar los requerimientos para un contexto - por ejemplo, un sistema de negocio, un conjunto de módulos de software - y para diseñar una solución para mejorar los procesos involucrados. No está restringido al diseño de programas de computadora, sino que cubre sistemas enteros de distinto tipo. Las metodologías de análisis y diseño más modernas son casos de uso guiados a través de requerimientos, diseño, implementación, pruebas, y despliegue. Diseño orientado a objetos es una fase de la metodología orientada a objetos para el desarrollo de Software. Su uso induce a los programadores a pensar en términos de objetos, en vez de procedimientos, cuando planifican su código. Un objeto agrupa datos encapsulados y procedimientos para representar una entidad. La 'interfaz del objeto', esto es, las formas de interactuar con el objeto, también se definen en esta etapa. Un programa orientado a objetos se caracteriza por la interacción de esos objetos. El diseño orientado a objetos es la disciplina que define los objetos y sus interacciones para resolver un problema de negocio que fue identificado y...

...Jim Rumbaugh. En el proceso de creación de UML han participado, no obstante, otras empresas de gran peso en la industria como Microsoft, Hewlett-Packard, Oracle o IBM, así como grupos de analistas y desarrolladores. En UML 2.0 hay 13 tipos diferentes de diagramas. Para comprenderlos de manera concreta, a veces es útil categorizarlos jerárquicamente: Diagramas de estructura enfatizan en los elementos que deben existir en el sistema modelado: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Diagrama de clases Diagrama de componentes Diagrama de objetos Diagrama de estructura compuesta (UML 2.0) Diagrama de despliegue Diagrama de paquetes Diagramas de comportamiento enfatizan en lo que debe suceder en el sistema modelado: 7. Diagrama de actividades 8. Diagrama de casos de uso 9. Diagrama de estados Diagramas de Interacción, un subtipo de diagramas de comportamiento, que enfatiza sobre el flujo de control y de datos entre los elementos del sistema modelado: 10. Diagrama de secuencia 11. Diagrama de comunicación 12. Diagrama de tiempos (UML 2.0) 13.

...United States presidential election of 1880, held on November 2, Republican James A. Garfield (pictured left) defeated Democrat Winfield Scott Hancock (pictured right). Garfield was an Ohio Congressman; Hancock was a Pennsylvania-born career army officer. Both were Civil War generals, as was a third candidate, Iowa Congressman James B. Weaver, nominated by the left-wing Greenback Party in a challenge to the dominance of the two major parties. In a campaign fought mainly over issues of Civil War loyalties, tariffs, and Chinese immigration, Garfield and Hancock each took just over 48 percent of the popular vote. Weaver and two other candidates made up the remainder. The voter turnout percentage was among the highest in the nation's history. In the end, the two main candidates' popular vote totals were separated by fewer than 2,000 votes, the smallest US presidential popular vote margin ever recorded. Garfield's victory was decisive in the electoral college, as he won nearly all the populous Northern states for a 214 to 155 victory. (Full article...)
