Actually there were two separate battle of Bull Run- which has nothing to do with Bull-fighting. Obviously, being combat-seasoned the second engagement involved better-trained and seasoned troops on both sides. If I am not mistaken the second battle of Bull Run is known to the Confederates and their fans as Shiloh. Both a poem and a motion picture were done on a juvenile drummer caught up in the battle. It is poetically suggested the drummer died in the poem ( The Peach Blossoms fell on the drum) He survived the action in the Disney movie version called, appropriately, Johnny Shiloh. Obviously in Grey costume!
