Only days in his new job as commander of the Union Army of the Potomac, Meade would decide to stand and fight at Gettysburg (on the reliable recommendation of John Reynolds). This decision would change the course of the war and ultimately hasten the fall of the Confederacy, with such staggering casualties that could never be replaced. Meade remained in command of the Army of the Potomac for the rest of the war (with Grant looking closely over his shoulder).
