Explanation

General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson was the most notable casualty of the Battle of Chancellorsville. He was accidentally shot by his own Confederate sentries in the confusion of nightfall and died of pneumonia a few days later after his arm was amputated. His death was a severe blow to General Robert E. Lee and the Confederate war effort.
