DW's GGF (we're old) roDE in the 6th KY with Morgan thru southern IN & OH above Cincy. Tried to cross back across the OH River into WV but was captured.Forrest, Stuart, Mosby and Morgan literally ran circles around the Union army until attrition set in...the South blockaded, simply couldn't replace it's losses, while the Union mined a seemingly endless supply of recruits in northern harbors, fresh off the boat from Ireland, for not much more than the cost of a meal.
Union had a minimum pay level regardless of where you were from.
