Answer:

D McClellan

Explanation:

In 1862, president Abraham Lincoln decided to relieve General George McClellan of his command after the Battle of Antietam. The reason is McClellan was unable to concentrate his forces effectively, so the Confederate army shifted his defenders to block each of three Union thrusts. Besides, he was unable to employ his large reserved forces to ensure success.
