| Iowa Chasseurs |
In the rich industrial north we have seen Iowan, Paul De Krackere invest some of his immense personal wealth to turn out the 1st Iwoa Volunteer Infantry , aka The Iowa Chasseurs. De Krackers has also brought with him a large personal staff to attend to all his medical and publicity needs whilst he roughs it on campaign.
This well equipped, and good looking unit from Des Moines, is certainly the most spectacular unit to be raised so far and makes their commander the envy of all ...

| 1st Vermont - The Victory Regiment |
Meanwhile From the mountainous North East of the USA come the Green Mountain Boys of Vermont, under the command of the pro-abolitionist, John Holt-Oglethorpe, of that same state. Holt-Oglethorpe has furnished all the units in his brigade with Vermont styled jackets - piped and faced in green.
Many will know that Holt-Oglethope is a close and intimate friend of the Vermont State Governor, as such the Vermont 'Freedom's Vanguard' Brigade that he commands has been blessed with additional units to enhance its strength in the field. So they don't just look pretty, they fight well too!

| 56th Georgia |
Moving South to see what we have there we must first call out John Henry De Lamar Clayton, a lawyer by trade, who has been instrumental in raising the 'Clayton Legion' to fight for Georgia (and Alabama's honour). From within that Legion's ranks we must mention the 56th Georgia Volunteer Infantry who have all rallied to the colours wearing distinctive Racoon Hats.
Another distinctive unit in this Legion are the Georgia Hussars, who'll be the subject of a future Units of note article!
