Northern Virginia, commanded by General R. E. Lee, January 31, 1865”; This list
contains many commanders who were not there. They were the “official”

leaders from this list as a result. ↩

inspection reports from February 28, 1865. However, leaders listed are
from January. I’ve chosen to ignore the leaders and just use this source
for the organization of the order of battle. ↩
