George Meade may look like if J.K. Simmons played Gollum, but this dude was one hell of an ass kicker. He never really wanted the military life, but destiny dragged his ass kicking and screaming all the way through it. He played a significant role in the Mexican-American War, and got no glory. Then when the Civil War rolled around he smashed Confederates left and right, and still never quite got all the respect he deserved. But it's safe to say the war might have gone differently if not for him. Enjoy!
