Format: Paperback
BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES OF THE COMMISSIONED OFFICERS OF THE CONFEDERATE STATES MARINE CORPS
WHITE MANE PUBLISHING, 2001
RALPH W. DONNELLY AND EDITED BY DAVID M. SULLIVAN
QUALITY SOFTCOVER, $30.00, 346 PAGES, PHOTOGRAPHS, ILLUSTRATIONS, BIBLIOGRAPHY, NOTES

On March 16, 1861, the Congress of the Confederate States of America authorized a Marine Corps to be formed as follows: six companies with each one commanded by a captain and consisting of one first lieutenant, one second lieutenant, four sergeants, four corporals, two musicians, and 100 privates. The Corps' staff was to include a commandant, a quartermaster, a paymaster, an adjutant, a sergeant major of the Corps, and a quartermaster sergeant.

On May 20, 1861, the Corps was enlarged o number 46 officers and 944 enlisted men with a headquarters staff that included one colonel, one lieutenant colonel, one major, one major serving as adjutant, one major serving as a quartermaster, one major serving as paymaster, one sergeant major, one quartermaster sergeant, and two principal musicians. At the line level, the Corps was to consist of ten captains, ten first lieutenants, twenty second lieutenants, forty sergeants, forty corporals, ten drummers, ten fifers, and 840 privates. Although of proper strength for a regiment of ten companies, no company organization was detailed in this organizational plan.

Lloyd J. Beall was appointed the Colonel Commandant on May 23, 1861. On March 6, 1862, a 'writer' (a civilian secretary), was authorized to be hired for the Commandant's office. Another clerk was authorized for the quartermaster's office on 30 April 1863.Read more ›
