Some weeks prior to the battle of Sharpsburg, General Robert E. Lee had been injured by a fall from his horse, Traveler. At the time of the battle, Lee still had his right arm splinted and in a sling, and his left hand and wrist were bandaged and still partially splinted. The wearing of his sword and binoculars was impractical. His every need, such as dressing, mounting and dismounting, as well as hard riding, was assisted by special aides.

Some of these men were armed with heavy (15 to 36 pound) target rifles, when conditions were right. For this type of weapon, static conditions and sieges were needed. A long 4x telescopic sight made shots up to 1000 yards possible with deadly accuracy.

Item Name: The Ambulance Corpsman
Item Number: E-4
Edition Limit: 350
Price: $79.00

The need for an organized Ambulance Corps was apparent from the first battle of the Civil War. The Medical Department was as much in need of an increase in manpower as was the rest of the Army. Men with knowledge of the medical arts became Hospital Stewards and were similar to today's Warrant Officers. Ambulance drivers and stretcher bearers were often men desiring to serve their country, but not of a stature or fitness level to survive the rigors of campaigning and soldiering.

Item Name: Capt. Rafael Semmes CSN
Item Number: E-5
Edition Limit: 350

After a sharp battle, the "Alabama" was sunk. Semmes later achieved the rank of Rear Admiral, but ended the war as an Army Brigadier general in charge of an Artillary "Battalion". Of historic interest is that his brother, Paul Semmes, was also a Brigadier General who recieved a fatal wound at Gettysburg.

Item Number: E-7
Edition Limit: 350
Price: $79.00

The Reverend William Corby was the first Roman Catholic Priest to serve in the Army of the Potomac. He chose to serve the Irish Brigade, but also performed his duties throughout the Army to Catholics and Protestants alike. Perhaps his most celebrated moment was on the second day of Gettysburg when Father Corby mounted a large rock and gave general absolution to the Irish Brigade. Afterwards, the brigade took it’s position as part of General Caldwell divisions’ attack in the Wheatfield area. Father Corby’s statue stands behind that bloody field, very near where years before, he stood before a kneeling brigade with its’ bright green flag
