This is George Custer , or
the ‘Boy General’, as the men in the ranks
knew him - confident, swaggering, dressed in a tailored
uniform. On June 29, 1863, Custer was promoted from Captain
to Brigadier General, following a daring charge at the
battle of Aldie. Custer led his unit in ferocious fighting
at Gettysburg, which
set their standard for the remainder of their service.
Recklessly brave and fearless under fire, Custer had eleven
horses shot from under him during the course of the war,
while only once being wounded. Following the war he survived
a court martial in 1867 before riding to immortality at
the Little Big Horn in 1876. |

Ambrose Powell Hill, West
Point graduate, commander of the famous Light Division
under "Stonewall" Jackson, and later, commander
of the Army of Northern Virginia's 3rd Corps. A.P. Hill
was of small stature,
barely weighing 140 pounds, which gave him the appearance
of having a large head. He was known as "Little Hill".
Always at the front of his troops, Hill was always aggressive,
but often a rash leader. Hill was killed by a Union foragers
bullet a mere week from the wars' end, sparing him death
by a terminal disease, which often rendered him out of
action during the war. |
