Robert E. Lee seemed destined for greatness. His father was a Revolutionary War hero and at West Point he graduated second in his class! In 1861, when the Southern states seceded from the Union, Lee was offered the opportunity to command the Union forces. However, even though he was against the war, his loyalty to his home state of Virginia wouldnt let him fight for the North. Despite the Souths ultimate defeat, General Robert E. Lee remains one of the United States true military heroes.
