"...Fitzhugh Lee,Joe Wheeler and Forrest's Cavalry.They were all mostly smaller then the average person today." All cavalrymen. Members of that branch were chosen for their diminuative size, which served to save horses. Then too, men of those days were on average a couple of inches shorter than today. My two great uncles and GGF, of the 18th Ga. Infantry, ANV, were, among the three of them, 5'9" to 5'11", taller than average. Funny, my dad was 5'9" and I'm 5'11". Stan
