While his combat record during the Civil War left much to be desired, this Union general did whip the Army of the Potomac into fighting shape during a dark time for the North. Which general turned the Union's Army of the Potomac into an effective, if misused, fighting force?
Answer George B. McClellan
George McClellan took over the Army of the Potomac immediately after it's defeat at the Battle of Bull Run. He took the demoralized and disorganized Northern troops and turned them into a true army.
