Well a lot of people focus on Pickett's charge, but the truth is, the charge would have succeeded if Longstreet had pressed the hilltops (which he could have taken). had he done so, the Union army would have been flanked and Pickett's charge would have had the support it needed to demolish the yankee line. but Longstreet got cold feet and there was a slaughter instead.
