[Wednesday, July 10, 1861]

No entry on this day.

In the movie "Gods and Generals" Thomas J. Jackson addresses the men of the 33rd Virginia stating that he had always been a Union man but the North's bellicosity forced secession on the state and concludes "The Lincoln Administration required us to raise three regiments. Tell them we have done so! Dismissed." The flag of the 33rd Virginia is seen in the opening credits of the movie.
