Re: Article about the (Captured) 76th Ohio Flags

I have the 1st Arkansas Infantry Regiment capturing the flag at Ringgold, Georgia. Just off the top of my head here, but I do believe the 29th Missouri also lost a flag to the 6th-10th-15th Texas Cavalry regiments (Dismounted). MG. Cleburne had around 4,000 men and about 15 regiments. The Union had a total of 24 Regiments but not all were in direct combat. It was a very brave stand and it saved General Bragg's supply wagons and the Confederate Congress gave nothing but praise to MG. Cleburne and his division.

Here is a regimental detailed map on the battle.
