Some new units of the CSA, which will be introduced in update 0.404.

WIP



Monday: Lays Squadron Cavalry (Three companies)
The Little Fork Rangers, the Powhatan Troop, and the Wise Dragoons, under the command of Captain J F Lay, were attached to Brigadier General P G T Beauregard's headquarters as guides and couriers on 21 July, 1861. The Little Fork Rangers was detailed as part of President J Davis' escort late in the afternoon on 21 July, 1861. The Wise Dragoons was stationed at Occoquan, Virginia, for over three weeks prior to 15 May, 1861, and remained at Brigadier General P G T Beauregard's headquarters during the first battle of Manassas. The Powhatan Troop and the Wise Dragoons were assigned to the Seventh Brigade, First Corps, Army of the Potomac, under the command of Colonel N G Evans on 11 August, 1861

Wednesday: Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson
“Look, men! There is Jackson standing like a stone wall! Let us determine to die here, and we will conquer!” Exactly what General Bee said will never be known, but this version was published in the Charleston Mercury on July 25, 1861 and reprinted in the Richmond Daily Dispatch and Lexington Gazette.
Another popular version of General Bee’s exclamation is “Look at Jackson’s brigade standing like a stone wall! Rally on the Virginians!” This version appeared in several publications put out in the twenty-five years after the war. Yet another version of the quote was later put forward by Jackson’s surgeon, Hunter McGuire, in 1891: “There stands Jackson like a stone wall! Rally behind the Virginians!” The uniform that Jackson wore at First Manassas is at the VMI musem.

Friday: Confederate Signal Operator
Although, as has been shown, the Signal Service was in active and useful operation on several theatres of war--in the East in 1861, and early in 1862 in the West--it was not until April 19th, 1862, that the act was approved organizing the Signal Corps as a distinct branch of the Confederate army, and the Secretary of War was authorized to establish it as a separate corps or to attach it to the Adjutant and Inspector's Department or to the Engineer Corps. The Secretary decided to attach it to the Adjutant and Inspector-General's Department, and May 29th, 1862, was issued General Orders No. 40, A. & I. G. O., creating the Signal Bureau, with Major Win. Norris, of General Magruder's staff, as the head of it. No uniform was prescribed for the Signal Corps. The officers wore the uniform of the general staff of the same grade, and the detailed men wore that of the arm of the service to which they belonged, and on the rolls of which they were borne as detailed men. The Signal Corps, as organized, consisted of one Major Commanding, ten Captains, ten first and ten second-class Lieutenants and twenty Sergeants--there were no privates, as men were detailed from the line of the army whenever wanted, and when their services were no longer required they returned to their respective commands.

Sunday: Second Kentucky Battalion Sharpshooters
The 1st Kentucky Battalion Infantry and the 2nd Kentucky Battalion Sharpshooters, under the command of Major T Claiborne, arrived at Piedmont station, Virginia, on 19 July, 1861. The Kentucky troops proceeded by railroad to Camp Pickens, Manassas Junction, in the morning on 22 July, 1861, and were delayed by a railroad collision that killed and wounded thirty-two men. The Kentucky troops arrived at Camp Pickens, Manassas Junction, at 12 AM on 22 July, 1861, and encamped near the Lewis house, Portici, a mile southeast of Henry hill, Virginia. Although they were not at First Manassas in real life, their train is on schedule for 0.404!
