The correct answer is the letter A.

Here is a brief explanation:

The War of 1812, also known as the Anglo-American War, was the war between the United States and the United Kingdom and its colonies, including Upper Canada, Lower Canada, Nova Scotia, Bermuda and New land.  

On October 1, 1812, the Battle of Detroit occurred, where American General William Hull surrendered to British-Canadian general Isaac Brock and the British captured the village of Detroit without firing a single shot. Though fewer in number, they had threatened an overwhelming defeat, and Hull surrendered.

On September 12th, the British fleet approached Baltimore via North Point, near the mouth of the Patapsco River. A troop of about 4,500 of its men marched to Baltimore while its warships went up along the Patapsco river and advanced toward Fort McHenry. These ships opened a twenty-five hour bombing at the fort, but their American commanders refused to surrender.

amid [387]
He served to lay the foundation for the evolution of parliamentary government and subsequent declarations of rights in Great Britain and the United States. In attempting to establish checks on the king's powers, this document asserted the right of "due process" of law. By the end of the 13th century, it provided the basis for the idea of a "higher law," one that could not be altered either by executive mandate or legislative acts.

Answer:

<u>1. What does General Longstreet say about the enemy when he speaks with General Lee?</u>

That the enemy was anxious.  

At that time, Longstreet managed to surround the enemy's capital. The enemy was aware of this and heightened their defense because they're expecting an attack. Longstreet believed that at that time it's better to not lose cool and wait. Anxiety tend to resulted in mistakes and that's when they should strike the enemy.

<u>2. Why doesn’t General Sam Hood want to take the hill? </u>

Basically because the enemy had an <u>advantageous position</u> in the high ground. During gun fights, having high ground were extremely beneficial since it made your troops became harder to be hit.

Sam hood believed that the troops did not have enough numbers to override this disadvantages, so he didn't really want to risk it.

<u>3. Colonel Chamberlain’s men are the end of the line of the Union army. What would happen if Colonel Chamberlain’s men retreated?</u>

At that time, Colonel Chamberlain and his men had the role to hold the enemy's line and distract them. While the distraction occured, other unites of the army will flank the enemy from the side and took over the high ground.

If Chamberlain retreated, the<u> enemy wouldn't be distracted and they could see the flank far before it came</u>. This would made it impossible for the union to took the high ground.

<u>4. What did Colonel Chamberlain do when his men ran out of ammunition?</u>

After they ran out of ammunition, Colonel Chamberlain used bayonets and charge down into the two Alabama regiments. Bayonet is a knife that attached to the edge of your gun. So it kind of acting like a spear.

At that time, Chamberlain believed that his unit should hold the line at all cost in order for the union to achieve victory. Even though melee attacks was risky, he believed that it's worth the sacrifice.
