Mansfield, LA 4/8/1864 Medal of

Honor

"With his regiment situated on the extreme left of the line, and

under orders to hold back helf of his men as a reserve, Colonel

Armant nevertheless elected to lead the remaining helf in the

attack. Having advanced against the enemy position and endured

a very heavy fire of artillery and musketry, Colonel Armant had

his horse shot from under him. In that instant, noticing that his

color bearer was down, Colonel Armant seized the standard and

bore it forward. Although desperately wounded moments later, he

kept the colors aloft, and despite two additional wounds,

maintained his post on the field. When last seen alove, he was

prostrate, trying to hold up his flag...bidding defiance to his

destroyers, thus even unto death, providing his men with an

extraordinary, inspirational example of heroic leadership."

Honor

"Although detailed as a courier to the division commander, Pvt.

Barbee joined his regiment near Devil's Den during the hottest

part of the engagement. Eager for action, Pvt. Barbee climbed a

high prominent rock and with wounded compatriots passing him

loaded muskets, opened fire on the enemy. Although

dangerously exposed to a storm ofenemy fire by his defiant, erect

stance on the rock, Pvt. Barbee continued to discharge his

weapons until knocked from his position by a bullet to the right

leg. Despite his wound, he promptly reclimbed the rock and

continued to fire at the enemy. Moments later, a bullet to his left

leg tumbled him from his perch, but again he climbed to the top of

the rock and fought on. After having fired more than two dozen

rounds, a third, serious wound to the body knocked Pvt. Barbee

into a crevice where, despite his cries for aid so that he might

continue the fight, he lay trapped on his back until freed at battle's

end. His reckless example of brazen valor solidified the battle

line during the height of the fighting and remained an inspiration

to his comrades for therest of their lives."

"When the garrison flagstaff was destroyed in the opening

bombardment, orders were given to raise the colors on the empty

staff at the Mound Battery. With no concern for his own safety,

Private Bland grabbed the flag and in the midst of the shelling,

ran for the mound Battery. Finding the halyards unreeved, he

braved a heavy fire of shot and shell from the enemy fleet by

personally climbing the flagstaff and fastening the flag.

Determined to destroy his staff, the enemy concentrated their

guns on the Mound Battery, eventually cutting loose the lower

end of the flag. Again, Private Bland climbed the staff and at

great personal peril, reattached the flag with his necktie where,

although torn by shell fragments, it continued to fly throughout the

engagement."

"Although a non-combatant, Father Bliemel joined his regiment in

their assault on the enemy's fortified works. Disregarding his own

safety and not content to remain in the rear, Father Bliemel

continued forward into the thickest of the fighting and began

ministering to the needs of the wounded and dying. Despite the

extreme danger, he continued his work and when the attack was

repulsed, accompanied the litter bearers to the rear. But while

tending to a fallen soldier, hewitnessed the wounding of the

colonel of his regiment. Unwilling to abandon his commanding

officer, he stopped and went back for him. Seeing that the

wounds were mortal, Father Bliemel instead knelt in the field and

began to adminster the last sacrament on the dying man's behalf.

There , with his hands uplifted to God in petition for his colonel's

soul, Father Bliemel was decapitated by a shell from the enemy's

artillery."

Burke James Cpl. B 4 Texas Infantry The Texas

Gold Star

In January 1865, General Robert E. Lee received a small

package from "a young lady of Texas" containing nine gold stars.

It weas her desire that these gold stars be presented to the

bravest soldiers of Hood's Texas Brigade. Lee forwarded the

stars to the "Commanding Officer of Hood's Texas Brigade in

care of Senator Louis Wigfall with the following observation.

"Where all are so meritorious, and have done som much for the

honor of their State, I know it will be difficult to select the most

worthy, but from your intimate knowledge of their deeds and

conduct in action, you can with more certainty than any other,

bestow them in accordance with the wishes of the donor. I

therefore commit them to you."

Honor

"With the words, 'If we are to die, let us die like men,' General

Cleburne led his division forward in the great charge against a

waiting enemy protected by three lines of heavy entrenchments.

Upon the capture of the first line, General Cleburne, riding across

his division and perilously exposed to an intense fire of artillery

and musketry, urged his men onward against the second line.

Despite his horse being killed by artillery fire, General Cleburne

found a second horse and was in the process of mounting when it

was killed by a cannonball. Waving his cap and with utter

disregard for his own safety, he then advanced on foot, leading

the charge against the enemy's second line where he perished."

Cook J.W. Pvt. H 3 Arkansas Infantry The Texas

Gold Star

In January 1865, General Robert E. Lee received a small

package from "a young lady of Texas" containing nine gold stars.

It weas her desire that these gold stars be presented to the

bravest soldiers of Hood's Texas Brigade. Lee forwarded the

stars to the "Commanding Officer of Hood's Texas Brigade in

care of Senator Louis Wigfall with the following observation.

"Where all are so meritorious, and have done som much for the

honor of their State, I know it will be difficult to select the most

worthy, but from your intimate knowledge of their deeds and

conduct in action, you can with more certainty than any other,

bestow them in accordance with the wishes of the donor. I

therefore commit them to you."

5/24/1863 Medal of

"Although crippled and still suffering from lingering battle wounds,

Private Fontaine volunteered to carry dispatches and 18,000

desperately needed percussion caps through the enemy's siege

lines to the Confederate defenders in Vicksburg. Traveling alone

and often in disguise, Private Fontaine rode north to the Yazoo

River. After losing his horse in a successful effort to avoid

capture by the enemy, Private Fontaine seized a small dugout

and started downstream. Despite the loss of his haversack and a

critical shortage of drinking water, he paddled and floated through

dense swamps and flooded bayous, traveling by night, hiding by

day. In constant danger of capture as a spy, Private Fontaine

nevertheless pushed closer to the city, passing through the midst

of enemy gunboats undetected, and delivered his dispatches and

precious cargo of caps to the commanding general five days after

he departed."

Forrest Nathan Bedford Colonel Forrest's Cavalry Cavalry Shiloh, TN 4/8/1862 Medal of

Honor

"Confronted by advancing regiments of enemy infantry and

cavalry, Colonel Forrest instead seized the initiative and with 350

troopers - the rear guard of the army - charged the infantry,

wrecked their line, and sent them in confusion against their

cavalry. With the enemy advance shattered, Colonel Forrest

personally led a vigorous pursuit of the fugitives, racing far ahead

of his men and stopping only when suddenly faced with a brigade

of enemy infantry drawn up in the line of battle. Alone and

surrounded by dozens of horsemen shouting "Kill him" and

"Shoot that man" Colonel Forrest fought desperately to cut his

way free. Despite his mount mortally wounded and himself

desperately hurt with a bullet lodged against his spine, Colonel

Forrest shot his way to safety wit his service revolver, providing

his men with an outstanding example of the type of personal

bravery that wouldcharacterize his actionsthroughout the war."

"Disregarding a painful, near crippling injury to his leg, General

Garnett left his ambulance to lead his brigade in the great charge.

Learning of divisional orders that all officers would accompany

the attack on foot, General Garnett, unable to walk yet

determined to go forward, sought and received permission to

proceed on horseback, fully cognizant of the peril of his request.

Despite a withering fire of artillery and musketry, General Garnett

maintained his brigade in good order, both by his very visible

presence and with words of constant counsel to his men. In the

last moments before he perished, General Garnett was still

mounted and at the head of his brigade, having led his men

through a devastating fire across nearly across a mile of open

field to the very apex of the enemy posion."

"With his cavalry dismounted and engaged along the river bank

with an enemy gunboat, General Green perceived that musketry

alone would not overwhelm the ironclad. Yet observing that the

portholes of the vessel were its most vulnerable points, General

Green ordered his men to concentrate their fire upon them.

Seeing that this angle of fire was still ineffective, he called for

volunteers to follow him down the bank and into the river in a

perilous attempt to fire directly into the portholes and compel the

surrender of the gunboat. With his volunteers massing at the

water's edge for this desperate charge, General Green rode

forward into the river to lead them and moments later was

instantly killed by enemy artillery fire."

Gettysburg, PA 7/3/1863 Medal of

Honor

"Although suffering a sabre wound to the head from a previous

day, General Hampton, by personal example, led his men in a

desperate charge against a determined foe. While the fighting

swirled hand-to-hand, General Hampton felled three of the enemy

with his revolver and ran one through with his sword. Spotting

one of his own troopers battleing alone, surrounded by several

assailants, General Hampton single-handedly charged to the

soldier's aid, saving the man's life by by knocking his closest

attacker out of the saddle. Despite a second sabre wound that

fractured his skull, General Hampton refused to abandon the

soldier. Blinded by his own blood, he fought on, killing several

attackers with his sword despite yet another wound to his side."

"During the desperate struggle for the salient, with much of the

fighting hand to hand and even the fate of the army hanging in

the balance, Pvt. Hancock voluntarily left the cover of the

traverses and braved a terrific storm of musketry - perhaps some

of the most intense of the war - to bring badly ammunition to his

exhausted comrades in arms. Although detailed as a courier to

the brigade commander, he repeatedly risked his life to cross the

bullet swept terrain in the all-day fight in the rain, promptly

returning each time with more cartridges for the men in the works

with little concern for his own safety. Pvt. Hancock's unselfish

action despite witnessing the death or wounding of so many

others in the same attempt, was valor of the highest order and

marked him for special notice from the brigadier general

commanding."

Hemphill Jacob Sgt. H 5 Texas Infantry The Texas

Gold Star

In January 1865, General Robert E. Lee received a small

package from "a young lady of Texas" containing nine gold stars.

It weas her desire that these gold stars be presented to the

bravest soldiers of Hood's Texas Brigade. Lee forwarded the

stars to the "Commanding Officer of Hood's Texas Brigade in

care of Senator Louis Wigfall with the following observation.

"Where all are so meritorious, and have done som much for the

honor of their State, I know it will be difficult to select the most

worthy, but from your intimate knowledge of their deeds and

conduct in action, you can with more certainty than any other,

bestow them in accordance with the wishes of the donor. I

therefore commit them to you."

Honor

"With instructions to guard the railroad bridge at Strawberry

Plains against all marauders, Private Keelan single-handedly

defended his post against an overqhelming enemy force intent on

burning the bridge. Armed with but a single-shot pistol and a

Bowie knife, Private Keelan killed the first sapper at point-blank

range. In the desperate hand-to-hand fight that followed, Private

Keelan was shot in the left elbow, the right arm, and the right hip,

suffered three sabre cuts to the neck and scalp, and had his left

hand severed at the wrist. Despite these wounds, Private Keelan

shashed to death two of his attackers and seriously wounded an

undetermined number of the enemy before they fled the bridge."

"On the day after the battle, unable to endure any longer the cries

armed only with full canteens in an effort to relieve the suffering

of the maimed. Perilously exposed yet miraculously unscathed

by the initial musketry of the enemy who mistook his intentions,

Sgt. Kirkland commenced his mission of mercy to the wounded,

arranging knapsacks as pillows, straightening broken limbs,

covering freezing bodies with overcoats, and always quenching

desperate thirsts with life giving water. For an hour and a half, he

went about his humane work as both sides held their fire in

admiration, until all the wounded in that part of the field were

tended."

In January 1865, General Robert E. Lee received a small

It weas her desire that these gold stars be presented to the

bravest soldiers of Hood's Texas Brigade. Lee forwarded the

stars to the "Commanding Officer of Hood's Texas Brigade in

care of Senator Louis Wigfall with the following observation.

"Where all are so meritorious, and have done som much for the

honor of their State, I know it will be difficult to select the most

worthy, but from your intimate knowledge of their deeds and

conduct in action, you can with more certainty than any other,

bestow them in accordance with the wishes of the donor. I

therefore commit them to you."

Lemon James Lile Captain 18 Georgia Infantry Fort Sanders, TN 11/29/1863 Medal of

Honor

"Fully recognizing the desperate nature of the early morning

attack against the enemy works, Captain Lemon nevertheless led

his company with great determination across an open field of fire,

crisscrossed by wire and blocked by abatis. Charging into a

hailstorm of musketry and canister, the Confederates pushed

their attack to the very walls of the fort only to falter in the deep

ditch surrounding the works. Realizing that the men would be

slaughtered if they did not carry the parapet, Captain Lemon took

his sword and began digging steps in the frozen, slippery clay of

the fortification. Despite point blank musketry and exploding

shells lobbed by the enemy from the works, Captain Lemon

safely reached the slope of the parapet. Althought alone and

perilously exposed in this dangeroius position, he heroically

assisted a number of others in getting out of the trench. Seeing

his brigade commander killed, Captain Lemon courageously led

the men with him to the top of the parapet and into the fort where

he fell severely wounded, and a prisoner of war."

Gold Star

In January 1865, General Robert E. Lee received a small

It weas her desire that these gold stars be presented to the

bravest soldiers of Hood's Texas Brigade. Lee forwarded the

stars to the "Commanding Officer of Hood's Texas Brigade in

care of Senator Louis Wigfall with the following observation.

"Where all are so meritorious, and have done som much for the

honor of their State, I know it will be difficult to select the most

worthy, but from your intimate knowledge of their deeds and

conduct in action, you can with more certainty than any other,

bestow them in accordance with the wishes of the donor. I

therefore commit them to you."

dangerously exposed, defiantly waved his banner. When the

colors were twice shot from his graps, he retrieved them although

fully aware that he had become a specific target. But with utter

disregard for his personal safety, Private Mays remained in the

open until reinforcements arrived, and despite the best efforts of

the enemy, he survived the battle unhurt, returning to camp with a

Medal of

Honor

"With only twenty-nine men, Captain Mosby stealthly entered the

enemy's line undetected and under cover of night, made his way

to the headquarters of the commanding general at Fairfax

Courthouse. After ordering telegraph lines cut and all

combatants, horses, arms, and ammunition siezed, Captain

Mosby accompanied by several raiders entered a private

residence and captured the brigadier general commanding. With

his raid complete, his captured stores and prisoners guarded, and

all his men accounted for, Captain Mosby, now more than ten

miles behind enemy lines, led his men south, then abruptly west

to confuse his pursuers. Again employing stealth and brazen

audacity, Captain Mosby guided his column into the night past

numerous enemy camps and picket posts until dawn, he was

safely beyond enemy lines. As a result of his daring raid, Captain

Mosby captured one brigadier general, two captains, thirty other

prisoners, fifty-eight horses and numerous arms and

equipment...all without firing a shot. In this singular action that so

typlified his movements throughout thewar, Captain Mosby instilled

Front Royal, VA 9/23/1864 Medal of

Honor

"Captured with five others in a skirmish outside Front Royal, Pvt.

Overby and his compatriots, instead of receiving humane

treatment accorded prisoners ofwar, were ordered to be

executed. Reviled and beaten by his captors, Pvt. Overby could

only watch as three of his fellow prisoners were wrenched away,

dragged through the streets, and summarily shot. Knowing he

had no chance against such a mob, Pvt. Overby nevertheless

remained erect and defiant. Despite a noose around his neck, he

refused to give his executioners vital information that could

compromise his battalion - even in exchange for his life - and

instead, with his last words, issued a dark prophecy of revenge."

"While serving the Number One Gun of Dement's Section which

was planted squarely on the railroad bridge in advance of infantry

support, dangerously exposed and blocking the retreat of the

enemy from Winchester, Private Owens, at great personal peril,

continued to work his gun and despite the slaughter of his fellow

crewmates, remained at his post until only he and his

commanding officer were left. With this officer soon seriously

wounded, Private Owens alone, continued at his duties, serving

his gun single-handedly under a withering fire until help arrived

and the enemy was decisively repulsed and captured."

Gold Star

In January 1865, General Robert E. Lee received a small

package from "a young lady of Texas" containing nine gold stars.

It weas her desire that these gold stars be presented to the

bravest soldiers of Hood's Texas Brigade. Lee forwarded the

stars to the "Commanding Officer of Hood's Texas Brigade in

care of Senator Louis Wigfall with the following observation.

"Where all are so meritorious, and have done som much for the

honor of their State, I know it will be difficult to select the most

worthy, but from your intimate knowledge of their deeds and

conduct in action, you can with more certainty than any other,

bestow them in accordance with the wishes of the donor. I

therefore commit them to you."

VA

5/3/1863 Medal of

Honor

"Despite the waiting, unseen enemy that lay heavily entrenched

across his front, General Pender realized that the dense brush

would obscure him from his men if he led his brigade forward on

foot. Electing to remain mounted despite the hazard, he

personally grabbed the colors of one of his regiments and led his

brigade against the enemy's works. Miraculously unscathed

despite a withering fire of musketry and heavy artillery, General

Pender rode along the entire extent of his brigade encouraging

his men, at one point riding up and over the entrenchments of the

enemy with the regimental standard still in hand. When his own

brigade was relieved, General Pender remained on the field,

leading yet other attacks until the enemy was driven from his

front. His outstanding example of confidence and personal

bravery was a signal ingredient to victory, an inspiration to the

army, and an action characterized by the commanding general as

one of 'most distinguished gallantry.'"

"Armed with but a single howitzer and commanding a crew of just

21 men, Lt. Read embarked on a mission to wreak havoc on the

commerical shipping interests of the enemy. In a series of bold

attacks marked by audacity and novel self-reliance, Lt. Read

successfully captured 21 vessles bound to or from enemy ports

without the loss of a man. Twice he moved his command to

capture vessels in an effort to confuse the enemy search force of

more than 40 ships. Learning that the revenue cutter Caleb

Cushing was anchored at Portland, Maine, Lt. Read entered the

harbor and under the cover of night, quietly seized the cutter and

cleared the harbor before dawn dispite the disadvantage of tide

and light wind. Pursued by an overwhelming enemy force, Lt.

Read kept his guns firing until his ammunition was exhausted.

Realizing that further resistance was futile, Lt. Read ordered his

men into lifeboats and then fired the Caleb Cushing before

surrendering to the enemy, having spectacularly disrupted

commercial shipping along the Atlantic coast of the United

States."

Honor

"With all of the officers of his regiment either wounded or dead,

Lt. Rector, as adjutant of the regiment, immediately assumed

command and personally led his men in the desperate attack up

Graveyard Hill. Pushing rapidly forward, he soon found himself

alone, some fifty yards in advance of the line. Fearing that the

regiment would falter under the withering fire of the enemy guns

and the excessive summer heat, Lt. Rector single-handedly

scaled the brerastworks of the enemy. From this dangerous

position, just twenty feet from the enemy line, he placed hiscap

upon his sword, held it out with his right hand and cheered his

men forward. Although perilously exposed to massive enemy

fire, he continued to wave his cap and exhort his regiment

towards the works until hhit by a ball, breaking his arm and

dropping his sword and cap on the works. Taking up his sword

with his left hand, he ran it through the cap and defiantly thrust it

aloft once more, encouraging all of the field with his heroic

example until he was mortally wounded by a second round."

"Riding hard to bring the last reserves to the field after the

Confederate line had been broken on the far left, Capt. Ridley

personally guided the 42 Georgia Volunteers and two guns of his

battery to a position where they could enfilade the advance of the

enemy. Although badly outnumbered Capt. Ridley directed and

maintained a heavy fire into the attacking enemy line, thwarting

the momentum of the assault that threatened to envelop the

Confederate left flank. Seeing all infantry support driven from the

field and realizing that many of his men lay killed or wounded,

Capt. Ridley nevertheless joined the survivors of one gun crew to

keep the cannon firing. Ignoring his own safety despite horrific

casualties and realizing that his own position was indanger of

being overrun, he continued to serve the gun until he alone stood

at the cannon's mouth. When last seen alive, he was still at his

post, dealing destruction to the enemy and unwilling unto death to

yield his ground."

Gold Star

In January 1865, General Robert E. Lee received a small

package from "a young lady of Texas" containing nine gold stars.

It weas her desire that these gold stars be presented to the

bravest soldiers of Hood's Texas Brigade. Lee forwarded the

stars to the "Commanding Officer of Hood's Texas Brigade in

care of Senator Louis Wigfall with the following observation.

"Where all are so meritorious, and have done som much for the

honor of their State, I know it will be difficult to select the most

worthy, but from your intimate knowledge of their deeds and

conduct in action, you can with more certainty than any other,

bestow them in accordance with the wishes of the donor. I

therefore commit them to you."

Gold Star

In January 1865, General Robert E. Lee received a small

It weas her desire that these gold stars be presented to the

bravest soldiers of Hood's Texas Brigade. Lee forwarded the

stars to the "Commanding Officer of Hood's Texas Brigade in

care of Senator Louis Wigfall with the following observation.

"Where all are so meritorious, and have done som much for the

honor of their State, I know it will be difficult to select the most

worthy, but from your intimate knowledge of their deeds and

conduct in action, you can with more certainty than any other,

bestow them in accordance with the wishes of the donor. I

therefore commit them to you."

"Arrested in a time of peace while under the protection of his

parole, Captain Wirtz was nevertheless tried by a military tirbunal

on charges of excessive cruelty to Federal prisoners held a Camp

Sumter. Despite manipulated evidence and perjured testimony,

he was convicted and condemned. Yet when offered his life on

the eve of his execution if he would incriminate senior members

of the Confederate Government including President Jefferson

Davis, he chose to forfeit his life instead of the truth."
