In Response To: Sharpshooter Units ()

This would not have been a stand alone unit but a part of the regiment. At least one officer, Captain Patrick F. Keary of the 8th Louisiana Infantry Regiment, was sent back to Louisiana to recruit a sharpshooter battalion for Lee's army. While Keary succeeded in raising several companies, he was unsuccessful in getting them to Virginia.
