Phillips' Legion : ウィキペディア英語版
Phillips' Legion
Phillips' Legion or Phillips' Georgia Legion was a unit of the Confederate Army during the American Civil War.
==Background and formation==
With the outbreak of the war, Georgia Governor Joseph E. Brown gave the task of organizing and training the 4th Brigade to his friend, attorney and militia general William Phillips. Phillips chose as his training base "the old Smyrna Camp Meeting Ground located 4 miles south of Marietta", renaming it "Camp Brown". By April 15, 1861, two heavy infantry regiments and three battalions (one each of light infantry, cavalry and artillery) had been organized.〔 However, Brown clashed with Confederate President Jefferson Davis over states' rights and control of military formations. Under much pressure, he was eventually forced to yield the two regiments to Davis and abandon his plan to place Phillips in charge of the brigade.
Brown formed a legion (which meant at the time a combined arms unit) from the remaining light infantry and cavalry battalions, commanded by Phillips. It initially consisted of a six-company infantry battalion, including the late addition of an all-Irish company known as the Lochrane Guards from Macon, and a four-company cavalry battalion. Brown's request for the artillery battalion to be included was denied by Davis.〔 The legion was accepted into state service in July 1861, and Phillips appointed its colonel the following month.
