Joe Hooker
Union General Joseph Hooker suffered an injury that was costly for the Union. Problems for Union General Joseph Hooker began on May 3, 1863. Forces under the command of General JEB Stuart, who had replaced the fallen Stonewall Jackson, advanced towards Hooker's troop concentration at Chancellorsville. Hooker decided to consolidate the battle line held by Union General Sickle's 3rd Corps. This forced Hooker to make a grave mistake. He withdrew troops and artillery from the high ground at Hazel Grove. The Confederates immediately replaced the federals there and Rebel artillery had a clear shot at Union positions. One such cannon shot injured General Hooker. The blast from a cannon knocked him unconscious. A Confederate shell had hit his headquarters. His injury caused General Darius Couch to take command. His appeal to Sickle's for reinforcements went unheeded. This caused Hooker's combat line to crumble under Confederate assaults.
George Gordon Meade
Major General Joseph "Fighting Joe" Hooker succeeded General Burnside as the commander of the Army of the Potomac. Hooker was the third general Lincoln had as the leader of the North's premier army.
Joseph Hooker was an Union Army General.
Lincoln replaced General Hooker with GeneralGeorgeMeade because when Hooker failed to win in the battle of Chancellorsville, Lincoln lost faith in Hooker, and had to replace him with General Meade. The union had many bad leaders. Although, Lincoln chooses Hooker as a General again later in the battles.Good luck, :) Bye.

Joseph Hooker
Both US president Lincoln and General in Chief Henry Wager Halleck were displeased with general Joseph hooker. They believed that Hooker's response to Lee's crossing of the Potomac River was late and unresponsive to the needs of the Union. This required a change and Halleck's choice of General Meade to replace Hooker was in line with President Lincoln's views on the matter.
