Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

The victory at the Battle of Gettysburg was a big one. It's where Lincoln gave his Gettysburg Address to further inspire the North to keep fighting.

The victory at the Siege of Vicksburg was very decisive in the Union victory because it's what gave control of the Mississippi river, cutting off the South from many supplies and logistical leverage.
