Thomas Jonathan "Stonewall" Jackson

- Lee regarded Jackson as his "right arm."

- Jackson earned his nickname in the First Battle of Bull Run

- Jackson was fatally shot by one of his own men (who mistaken him as the enemy) - at the Battle of Chancellorsville - and had his arm amputated.

- Lee sent a letter to Jackson, writing, “Could I have directed events, I would have chosen for the good of the country to be disabled in your stead."
