Let me guess that it was the set of orders which revealed Lee's strategy for the invasion of Pennsylvania. By chance, these reached McLellan, who came close to wiping out the separated parts of the Army of Northern Virginia.
He was not quite quick enough, and the result was the Battle of Antietam - won at great cost by the North.

How many Scottish regiments fought in World War 1?
If you want a list of all members of all Scottish Regiments, that would be difficult to provide. A lesson the British learned from WW2 was if you an entire Regiment served in one campaign or battle, then if that regiment suffered high loss of life that it would have a detrimental impact on the region or town from where the regiment was organized. Therefore, British Regiments(including those designated as Scottish Regiments) were divided into Battalions and each battalion would serve in a different part of the war. Thus the battalion designated 1 Royal Scots would be sent to one campaign and the 2 Royal Scotts were sent to another. This kind of info might be available.
Where did most of the fighting during the US Civil War take place?
During the American Civil War, most of the actual fighting took place in and around the Southern state of Virginia. Given the close proximity of the Union and Confederate capitals of Washington, D.C., and Richmond (Virginia), both the North and the South made a concentrated effort in this region to achieve victories at each other's expense, although important battles occurred in other regions, as well.
What does the crest for the world war 2 343rd infantry regiment's crest look like?
I don't know, however that regiment was part of the 86th Infantry Division. It was in combat in northern Europe. The Division nickname is "Blackhawk". The division website is www.86blackhawkdiv.org There is a picture of the Division's patch on that website. See that site, you may find what you are looking for. Also wikipedia has information about the division. I found a photo of this DUI pin posted on www.usmilitariaforum.com. The post said this was a rare DUI. It is a BLUE shield with a diagonal Bar and a Lion in upper Right and a mailed fist in lower Left. The banner contains the motto "WE SHALL NOT FAIL".

Is battlefield 3 for xbox good?
Battlefield 3 comes very close to modern warfare, so if you like that series then you will prbably like battlefield 3. If you're looking for a good campaign, battlefield 3 has a very realistic story mode, and if you're looking for good multiplayer, battlefield 3 has one which contains a lot of unlocks, including many attachments for weapons. If you're question concerns whether xbox is the best or not, its hard to say, but xbox and ps3 have more or less the same features, and PC has much bigger games and more than the consoles, but may lag alot. Hope this helps.
