He was an intelligent, highly trained, professional soldier with a strong sense on Duty. He had practical experience commanding troops under fire in the Mexican-American War. He could size up the topography of the battlefied and know how best to position his forces, and he learned how to prey upon the fears and insecurities of the enemy commanders. That said, his performance declined after the death of Stonewall Jackson, leading one to conclude that Jackson's tactical expertise was a great compliment to Lee's grand designs.
