Solution

The correct option is B Gettysburg

Pickett's Charge became the turning point in the three day of Battle of Gettysburg for the Union against the Confederacy in Gettysburg. This charge took place on July 3, 1863, and was General Robert E. Lee’s last, best chance at regaining the momentum the Confederacy enjoyed after night fell on Gettysburg on July 1. Yet instead of regaining momentum, the fractured military maneuver sealed the fate of thousands of those in the charge itself, and many hundreds of thousands more who had or would give up their lives in battles against the North.
