1st Regiment - Virginia Military Institute [Need Officers]

[GorbZ]

This regiment made up of VMI Cadets are the best of the best when it comes to fighting. We have privates who have the skills of Union Generals. We shall take over and support any battle that calls us to the fight. We are playing a support role for other regiments to take a hilltop or to charge forward. While we barely ever charge forward we do volley at those bloody union soldiers. This regiment is run by Colonel Gorbachev who needs some support under his wing. Colonel Gorbachev has real life ROTC Experience, and is hoping to lead this regiment to victory! Long Live Dixie!​

On May 10, 1864, the VMI Corps of Cadets was ordered to join Gen. John C. Breckinridge's Confederate forces near Staunton, Virginia. After marching nearly 85 miles northward, the Corps arrived at New Market on Sunday morning May 15, 1864. Gen. Franz Sigel's Union troops, positioned atop Bushong's Hill, raked the Confederate line with cannon and musketry creating a gap in the line.  Remarkably, the cadets helped close the gap, allowing the Confederate forces to regroup and push back the Union army. Breckenridge forced Sigel and his men to retreat, securing the battlefield for the Confederacy.  Many cadets lost their footwear in the freshly plowed soil, turned to thick mud after several days of rain. That section of the battlefield became known as the “Field of Lost Shoes.”​
