  • curprev 08:2308:23, 1 June 2023Donner60 talk contribs 11,813 bytes −22 there is no such grade as an acting general even though one of his men described him as such; he was not commissioned as a general because he never received the commission (See Eicher Civil War High Commands, pp. 31-34); Neither Warner nor Eicher list him as a general; Sifakis, sometimes cited, also does not describe him as a general, only as a brigade commander; removed sentence about commission - misleading if not outright erroneous, will replace this quote with historian info later undo
