where is stewart supposedly? culpepper courthouse. he's closer to brandy station, stretched all over. there is not enough forage. he's spreading his troops around and they are going to march this way and going to entrap stuart between the two wings. that make sense? it is a surprise in the morning of the ninth when davis's brigade splash of the cross at beverly ford, and finds out he is up against part of the sixth virginia to push him back. look at this. look at 15 cannons in between a picket line and the rest of jones's brigade. that is not where you put artillery. anyway, the equal weighting is going to be around st. james church and the counterattack as jones is going to stabilize his line, and the second front is going to open up. john buford is involved in all this early action. a second front, on two fronts but here's the interesting story and here is the missed opportunity, those that are up, here comes kelly's forward and the other two cavalry divisions. to tell david greg get your division up to brandy station, where is it g

tom was there with jeb stewart and the cavalry recliner since. first of three wounds and least of the three the tom received was at waterloo bridge, two days before the second battle of manassas when a spent many ball spent meaning it had already traveled a great distance. i guess it'd run out of steam tom was wounded and he saw the ball strike to third and ricochet and hit the insole of his right boot he didn't miss any service time but as a road at a very sore and booze foot for several weeks, and it was quite painful to mount this horse that was mild compared to the injuries that he would receive later he participated in the seven days campaign famously known after general johnson was very seriously wounded in the bill of seven finds or fair oaks. of 1862 and i'm sure that everyone has heard this name took command, robert e. lee. formally named the army of northern virginia. tom almost missed the battle of and teen or sharks bergh. if you were in the confederate calorie, you had to provide your own horse. when he left washington county he, lef
