 Stonewall Jackson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jackson's teachings are still used at VMI today because they are military essentials that are timeless, to wit: discipline, mobility, assessing the enemy's strength and intentions while attempting to secret your own, and the efficacy of artillery combined with infantry in a literal combined attack.
Jackson's troops served well under Robert E. Lee in the series of battles known as the Seven Days Battles, but Jackson's own performance in those battles is generally considered to be lackluster.
Jackson is often considered one of the most gifted battlefield commanders in American history, and his death was a severe setback for the Confederacy.
