Description
"From the many, one" The Lightning Brigade was made up of "citizen soldiers" from the farms of Indiana and Illinois. The brigade was unique because it was created as a unit that could move with the speed of cavalry but fight with the power of infantry. This new concept was tested during the long days of fighting at the battle of Chickamauga where the Brigade saved the Union Army from almost certain destruction on two occasions. The first time was at Alexander's Bridge. There they held two sections of Lilly's Battery and made a valiant stand to hold off an entire Confederate Army Corps. Their actions prevented a Confederate victory and avoided a total rout of the Union Army. Days later, the unit saved the Union forces again. While the rest of the right flank was fleeing, the Lightning Brigade repulsed the charges of an entire Confederate infantry and then counter-attacked the Rebels. Due to the brigade's performance, the Union was able to make a rock-like stand to save the Union Army.
