He accompanied General Jubal Earlyon the raid on Washington and in the Battle of Monocacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing his service with Early's command, Breckinridge took command of Confederate forces in southwestern Virginia in September, where Confederate forces were in great disarray. He reorganized the department and led a raid into northeastern Tennessee. Following a victory outside of Saltville, Breckinridge discovered that some Confederate troops had killed black Union soldiers the morning after the battle, an incident that shocked and angered him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn February of 1865 Breckinridge received the appointment of Secretary of War by Confederate President, Jefferson Davis.  However, the war did not last long enough for Breckinridge to prove himself as a desk leader, and he quietly returned to a small law practice in Lexington.  He died and was buried there in May of 1875.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beauregard's Tailor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50158737555734,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/0885\/0710\/files\/BE2E98CD-72E4-4B37-B17E-14017B745A5D.png?v=1750547037"},{"product_id":"8th-alabama-battle-flag-and-company-i-flag-stickers-close-out","title":"8th Alabama Battle Flag and Company I Flag Stickers (Close-Out)","description":"\u003cp\u003e8th Alabama - Emerald Guards Colors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach purchase comes with 2 stickers. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beauregard's Tailor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50394102432022,"sku":null,"price":1.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/0885\/0710\/files\/8D3E96E1-7109-437A-B70F-4AC3B9343E79.png?v=1755801728"},{"product_id":"missouri-battle-flag-9th-battalion-missouri-sharpshooters-stickers-magnet-close-out","title":"\"Missouri Battle Flag\" 9th Battalion Missouri Sharpshooters Stickers\/Magnet Close Out","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 9th Battalion Missouri Sharpshooters.

Lee declined and tendered his resignation from the army when the state of Virginia seceded on April 17, arguing that he could not fight against his own people.  Instead, he accepted a general’s commission in the newly formed Confederate Army. His first military engagement of the Civil War occurred at Cheat Mountain, Virginia (now West Virginia) on September 11, 1861. It was a Union victory but Lee’s reputation withstood the public criticism that followed. He served as military advisor to President \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.battlefields.org\/education\/history\/biographies\/jefferson-davis.html\"\u003eJefferson Davis\u003c\/a\u003e until June 1862 when he was given command of the wounded General \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.battlefields.org\/education\/history\/biographies\/joseph-johnston.html\"\u003eJoseph E.
