At the Battle of Brice’s Cross Roads, PVT John Milton Hubbard and the 7th Tennessee Cavalry, as part of MG Nathan Bedford Forrest’s Cavalry Corps, advanced against a numerically superior Union force on 10 June 1864.
Union Cavalry held the cross roads before the Confederates arrived and during that morning dismounted cavalry squared off against each other. Armed with Colt Navy Revolvers, PVT Hubbard and the 7th Tennessee Cavalry charged the lines of the 3rd and 4th Iowa Cavalry Regiments several times east of Brice’s Cross Roads.
Union Infantry eventually relieved the cavalry and PVT Hubbard and the 7th Tennessee now faced the 81st Illinois who had just forced marched about four miles into position. With cannon and bugles acting as the signal, the Confederates charged the physically exhausted Union Infantry at the Battle of Brice’s Cross Roads.
