I want to know what the different ranks were, and what they looked like?  This would be round about the 1870's.  I also want to know what they did each day?

I've never seen an explanation either. We have read explanations of the role of that rank.\n \n     I think that in this context, staff is just part of a name.

incredibly interesting.. never heard it though - i really haven't studied the koran as much as i'd like. \nthe beak - could be the pheonix or the eagle\ni think before 1751 on the american dollar, we had an eagle who looked more like a pheonix, and by many people it was one.\nis alot of masonic symbol crap that has me thinking lately. why do we have 13 stars on coins? it's been a LONG time since we had 13 states. who in the world came up with the idea of putting the eye of ra on the dollar? of the latin? masonic symbols are EVERYWHERE! SG1 uses 'em slightly in the command center on the wall... Legend of Zoro was very cool; it showed a conspiracy about the 'knights of aaragon' (templars/masons).. and if you still the pages of the open book - its got mason picture symbols.... lets see.. Jehovas witnesses & mormons were made by masonry - i have proof of that.. but i'm a little off subject. im me as you like

They have an "About" page that explains what it's all about. However, I had to read it more than once, and STILL am not 100% able to explain it. It looks very "busy" and confusing. *chuckle* But I'd advise giving the page a try. The link is below.

I copied this off one of the entries in RWWC. (Link 3).\n\n===================== \n\nBenjamin Franklin Royal was called "Frank". He enlisted in the Confederate Army on August 1, 1861 and was mustered on August 8, 1861 at Waynesboro, GA in Co. E Cobb's Legion Georgia Volunteers. Thomas Cox was Captain of his unit. \n\nThomas R. Cobb, commissioned Colonel of Cobb's Legion led the troops in the Seven Days Battle, June 25- July 1-1862, Second Bull Run, August 29-30, 1862, and Antietam, September 1862. He was at Harper's Ferry in October 1862. Col. Cobb was killed on December 13, 1862, at the Battle of Fredericksburg. After this the troops were under the leadership of General Wade Hampton in J.E.B. Stuart's command. \n\nDuring the Battle at Chancellorsville, April - May, 1863, Frank was wounded in the arm and his left ankle was broken in two places. He was in the Chimborazo Hospital at Richmond, VA (7,800 beds). Records state he was 27 years old. He was admitted to Jackson Hospital in Richmond, VA., on Aug. 5, 1863. It was noted that he was there Sept. 26, 1863, when he was issued clothes. \n\nHe was again in battle at the Wilderness Campaign, May 5-7, 1864. At the Battle of Gettysburg he was wounded behind the right ear. The hole was repaired by inserting a 50 cent piece in the hole in his skull. He recovered. He served in Inf., Cav., and Artillery Units. \n\nAt the Battle of New Market, September 28-30, 1864, Frank was captured, sent to Point Lookout, Maryland, until the end of the war and the surrender of the South. There were no barracks and water was scarce at Point Lookout. There were nearly 20,000 prisoners there at times. \n\nAfter the surrender at Appomattox on April 9, 1865, the Southerners took an Oath of Allegiance and walked home. On his Oath of Allegiance records described him as 5 feet, nine inches tall, with dark complexion, black hair, and light blue eyes. Frank walked from Maryland to Burke Co., GA. Family stories say that he came home at night and slept on the porch. The next morning his wife boiled his clothes in a pot while he ate and cleaned up. \n\nIn 1895 Frank received an Indigent Pension. He lived with his son(Henry Elbert) and his family as a greatly revered member of the family. His grandchildren remember the times around the fire when he told stories of the war. His Confederate Grave Marker does not show birth or death dates. \n\n...Notes from Annie M. Broxton Cooper and Elizabeth Royal Patton, both great- granddaughters.\n\n================================ \n\nWrite to me - Yahoo! Answers is no place for serious genealogy. \n\nPS - I get 500+ hits in Google for\n["Cobbs Legion" Georgia]

I love that mini-series. I watch at least once a year. Lt. Dike was a horrible leader...I think the name, "Foxhole Norman" means that he commanded his troops from a safe distance. He never was around to really lead and certainly not to support his men. I wonder how many lives would've been saved if Lipman was in charge from the git go.
