Robert. lee began his military career?

Colonel Robert E. Lee resigns from the United States army two days after he was offered command of the Union army and three days after his native state, Virginia, seceded from the Union. ... Two days later, Lee was appointed commander of Virginia's forces with the rank of major general.

Robert E. Lee was an American soldier who began his career with the US Army Corps of Engineers before committing treason and joining the treasonous Confederate Army, becoming the leader of the Army of Northern Virginia.

While some remember him fondly, this is mostly as a result of a whitewashing campaign by racist Confederate veterans.

Robert E. Lee was both a brilliant military leader and a treasonous Army officer.

The latter and not the former should define him in history.
