Re: Sharp's Brigade at Franklin captured flags

Eric, I am talking about the main attack at 3pm. SD.Lee was not present on the field. If you look at any map of the battle of Franklin you will see only Stewart's and Cheatham's Corps that took part at 3pm. At the 3pm attack only 1 division of Forrest's cav corps was available. Chalmer's (div), Biffle, Dibrell on the far right and Buford on the far right. Buford did not have all of his division cav up, the rest were trying to outflank the Union army (as Hood ordered) Jackson's cav division is not listed at the 3pm battle. Even after 7pm Cheatham's three divisions and Johnson's division from SD.Lee's Corps made a late attack which was also repulsed. There is so little written about Johnson's attack that only a few sentences I have been able to find out about his division's attack.

And this took you 10 years to figure out? Took me about 10 mins. And you have a book coming out??? lol.
