?If you make the attack as comtemplated it will be the greatest slaughter of the war; there isn't infantry enough in our whole army to carry those Heights if they are well defended.?

?General, we cover that ground now so well that we comb it as with a fine-tooth comb. A chicken could not live on that field when we open on it.?
- Col. E.P. Alexander, 1st Corp Artillery Chief, CSA
