George Armstrong Custer- Really only remembered for his crippling defeat and death at the battle of Little Bighorn.

Horatio Gates- So called "Hero of Saratoga" he stayed in his tent while his subordinates like Benedict Arnold and Daniel Morgan were out on the field truly being heroes. Later was ruined at the battle of Camden where he abandoned his army and fled 170 miles in three days. Truly pathetic.

Ambrose Burnside- Utterly incompetent Civil War general remembered only for his sideburns, which, of course, are named for him.
