After two days of maneuvering and sporadic fighting, Lee's Army of Northern Virginia had withdrawn behind to the heights west of Mine Run and began to fortify its position. Approaching this position on the evening of Nov. 29th, General Meade determined to launch attacks on both flanks early the next morning. At earliest dawn, General Warren, who was to lead the attack on the Rebel right flank, determined that the Confederates had so strengthened their defenses overnight as to make them unassailable. Warren called off his attack and Meade reluctantly agreed to cancel the day's planned assaults. The situation was a stalemate and the Union army returned to its starting positions north of the Rapidan River. So ended the Mine Run Campaign. But what if Warren had attacked as planned on the morning of the 30th? Would the attack have resulted in the slaughter that Warren feared? Or would the Army of the Potomac have successfully assailed the Confederate position and destroyed the Army of Northern Virginia?
