He was pretty much a bad dude in the Civil War. Started out as a second lieutenant. He was promoted from captain to brigadier general of volunteers at the age of 23. And later major general. He was an excellent brigade cavalry commander. He was presented the table which General Lee signed the surrender papers of the war.
probably General Armstrong Custer during the Civil War
he became the youngest general in the civil war.
North (Union)
Custer was a colonel during the Battle of Little Big Horn, as a regiment is normally commanded by a colonel, while a general commands multiple regiments. I think the confusion over Custer's rank is because during the Civil War he was promoted to brevet general (sort of a temporary general, promoted in the field). After the war Custer got himself in some trouble and was demoted back to colonel, and he never rose to the rank of general again.
Yes - he served as a brigadier general
None. Custer was a colonel at the time of his death. He was a general during the Civil War, but as most were, was reduced in rank after hostilities ended.
George A. Custer was a united states army officer who won fame as a civil war general and an Indian fighter in the west
Custer
was the key general of the south during the civil war
The youngest general officer in the Union army, Custer was reckless and brave, but led his men in many successful campaigns.
General Custer was a member of the U.S. Army; so I guess you could say that he was on the side of the USA (if that is a side).
Abraham Lincoln was never a general during the Civil War. Abraham Lincoln was the President of the United States during the Civil War.
