Cockrell's Missouri Brigade and Jo Shelby's Iron Brigade were some of the best troops to fight in any Confederate Army. They were very good troops and some of the hardest fighters that ever wore the gray. Jo Shelby and about 500 of his men refused to surrender and actually went to Mexico. Shelby never did surrender. I won't charge you for that history lesson.
