Four Confederate officers are named on banners here: J.E.B. Stuart, Joseph E. Johnston, John Bell Hood, and James Longstreet. Stuart commanded the Confederate cavalry whose long ride around the Union army before Gettysburg left Lee short of reconnaissance, and he was killed in 1864 at Yellow Tavern, Virginia. Longstreet led much of the Confederate force that attacked the Union lines on the battle's final days, while Hood was badly wounded in the arm on July 2. Their reputations were fiercely debated in print after the war, and this grouping reflects that contested memory.
