Thanks for the correction. Wash Art are also the Tigers and I know they too played an important role.

Yes the Washington Artillery was looked as the best Artillery unit in the Army of Northern Virginia.

The 7th Louisiana also had a company with the walking Tiger badge on it's capi at the start of the war.

Wheat was buried at Gaine's Mills by later General Stanford and later Major David French Boyd (the brother of Thomas Boyd, the future President of LSU, David being superintendent after the war).
