The Patriot Volunteer, Fighting For Country And

I Want My Army To Be An Army Of The Living God.

You May Be Whatever You Resolve To Be.

In The Army Of The Shenandoah, You Were The 'first Brigade!' In The Army Of The Potomac You Were The 'first Brigade!' In The Second Corps Of This Army, You Are The 'first Brigade!' You Are The 'first Brigade' In The Affections Of Your General, And I Hope By Your Future Deeds And Bearing You Will Be Handed Down The Posterity As The 'first Brigade' In This Our Second War Of Independence. Farewell!

This Army Stays Here Until The Last Wounded Man Is Removed. Before I Leave Them To The Enemy, I Will Lose Many More Men.

Our Movement Was A Great Success; I Think The Most Successful Military Movement Of My Life. But I Expect To Receive More Credit For It Than I Deserve. Most Men Will Think I Planned It All From The First; But It Was Not So. I Simply Took Advantage Of Circumstances As They Were Presented To Me In The Providence Of God. I Feel That His Hand Led Me - Let Us Give Him The Glory.
