V Corps

On the 27th, the storm having abated, Meade's corps, the 5th, Howard's corps, the 11th, and Slocum's corps, the 12th, the whole being under the command of General Slocum, left camp for Kelly's Ford, each accompanied by three batteries.

A detachment was thrown over in boats on the evening of the 28th, which dispersed the picket guard, and by the next morning the entire force was across the river and on their way to the Rapidan, the 5th Corps taking the direction of Ellie's Ford, and the 11th and 12th Corps that of Germania Ford.

Stoneman's cavalry crossed at the same time with the others and moved to Culpeper, where he halted for a time to reorganize his force and get rid of surplus horses, baggage, etc., which were sent to the rear.

The next day Averell kept on to Rapidan Station with 4,000 sabers to engage W.H.F. Lee's rebel brigade so that it could not interfere with the operations of the main body, which moved southeast across Morton's Ford and Raccoon Ford to Louisa Courthouse, where the work of destruction was to begin.

Sickles himself was soon after injured by a spent shot of piece of shell, which struck his waist belt.

His corps and French's division had lost 5,000 out of 22,000.

Our front gradually melted away and passed to the new line in rear through Humphrey's division of the 5th Corps, which was posted about half a mile north of the Chancellorsville house in the edge of the thicket, to cover the retreat.

At last only indomitable Hancock remained, fighting McLaws with his front line and keeping back Stuart and Anderson with his rear line.

Mm

... from the 5th Corps who arrived.

Remember this, that other brigade in Barnes' division of the 5th Corps, they have their date with des- destiny up on Little Round Top with Colonel Vincent.

Tilton and Sweitzer in the woods of Stony Hill, supporting de Trobriand's very awkward line, kind of at the, uh, foot of the, uh, crest there.

That is.

As time goes on, um, these targets don't just become more and more brazen, but, like, the ambition here is, is crazy.

Um, May 11th of 1972 at, uh, Frankfurt am Main, um, the US Army V Corps headquarters, um, which is located in the IG Farben building, um, the Red Army Fraction blew up the officers' club.

They wounded 13 soldiers.

They killed, uh, Lieutenant Colonel Paul Blomquist.

In 1898, the Spanish-American War erupted, and Horn joined the army in a non-combatant role as a packer.

He traveled to Cuba, where he served as the chief packer with the 5th Corps.

He did his job well for a couple of months, but was then left bedridden with an illness, either yellow fever or malaria.

He was deemed unfit for combat and was returned to the United States, bringing his service to an abrupt end.

On the 27th, the storm having abated, Meade's corps, the 5th, Howard's corps, the 11th, and Slocum's corps, the 12th, the whole being under the command of General Slocum, left camp for Kelly's Ford, each accompanied by three batteries.

So, you know, we're-- I'm going with, I'm going with General Grange to these meetings.

General Hendrix is commanding Fifth Corps at that time, and, uh, you know, things are brewing, and it's looking kind of ugly.

Um, so you had the Army experiences in, um, uh, along with the Brits and NATO, you know, Bosnia, America come in late, all of that, but Kosovo was really different.

Um, there was a world outcry for what the Serbs were doing to the Albanians, uh, or at least what we thought was going on.

Hey, D Money, would you hook me up with a letter of recommendation?

That's right.

But, you know, I was like, w- would you, 'cause he says, "Yeah, I'd be happy to write a recommendation for you." And, you know, and so I reached out to a lot of these, uh, highly esteemed combat leaders and, uh, and I wrote General Hendrix, you know, who had gone from Fifth Corps command, and I'd worked for him at Benning, you know, indirectly, uh, 'cause the one star worked for him, and we were all in the same head shed there and, uh, at, when he commanded Fort Benning.

And then he went on to be, uh, the Forces Command commander, you know, the top guy of all of the army in the United States, continental United States.
