Was George Meade commander of Union Armies at any point in time?
KylieCharneyHarringt...
He was not General-in-Chief - that was Ulysses Grant.
Meade had the distinction of defeating Robert E. Lee at Gettysburg, and then commanding the Army of the Potomac for the rest of the war.
During that long interval, he was closely shadowed by Grant, who travelled alongside Meade's army in a mobile HQ.
At Appomattox, Lee surrendered to Grant - as one General-in-Chief surrendering to another. Some said that he should have surrendered to Meade, as commander of the Army of Northern Virginia surrendering to the commander of the Army of the Potomac.
