CSA Flags recaptured, "Mule Shoe"

I am reading William D. Matter's classic 1988, "If it takes all summer".

On page 204, "Colonel Hoffman's Virginia Brigade regained most of BG. Steuart's line. In this action the captured colors of the 3rd NC and 10th VA were retrieved from dead Federals."

Also on page 204, "The 61st Georgia Infantry Regiment had 65 Officers and men captured and their flag."

Page 199, "The 19th Maine captured the 33rd VA flag."

Page 198, "Most of the 4th-5th-27th and 33rd Virginia regiments were captured." (I know the 5th Va saved their flag) now the 2nd Virginia Infantry regiment, which was on the far left of the Stonewall Brigade, most escaped.

MG. Hancock's attack did captured twenty artillery pieces, but Colonel Hoffman's VA brigade recaptured four pieces (Unknown).

Have a good weekend,
