Reseña del editor:

The 2nd Cavalry Regiment was organized during the summer of 1862 with men from the central and southern sections of the state. It was assigned to the Trans-Mississippi Department and served within the boundaries of Louisiana throughout the war. The unit confronted the Federals in many conflicts, but in the fight at Henderson's Hill on March 21, 1864, it had 15 officers and 192 men captured. It continued to serve, then disbanded during the spring of 1865. The field officers were Colonels James D. Blair and William G. Vincent, Lieutenant Colonel Winter W. Breazeale, and Major James M. Thompson. Battles of the 2nd Cavalry: Donaldsonville (September 21-25, 1862); Georgia Landing, near Labadieville (October 27, 1862); Bayou Teche (January 14, 1863); Fort Bisland [in reserve] (April 13-14, 1863); Irish Bend (April 14, 1863); Brashear City [detachment] (June 23, 1863); Red River Campaign (March-June 1864); Henderson's Hill (March 21, 1864); Mansfield (April 8, 1864)
