Nathan Bedford Forrest Cavalry Corps ~ Confederate States of America Medal“I rode with Forrest!” These four words alone were sufficient to define a Civil War Veteran’s service for those who fought on either side of the late War of Rebellion.Known as the “Wizard of the Saddle,” Nathan Bedford Forrest was one of only a handful of men, on either side, to enter the war as a private and end his war service a general. His exploits at Fort Donalson, Shiloh, Murfreesboro, Chickamauga, Fort Pillow, and Nashville, among a dozen other battles, remain both legendary and controversial.Along the way he forged a reputation as one of the greatest generals of the Civil War. His ferocity as a warrior being legendary, he once claimed to have killed one more Yankee in personal combat than the twenty-nine horses killed beneath him. Forrest, more than any general besides Sherman, understood the basic premise of war: "War means fighting and fighting means killing."Since no records of a Forrest Cavalry Corps society survive, original medals may have been issued during any of several post-war reunions, as opposed to having been struck under the authority of a formal organizational structure; and those few rare examples which survive command prices at traditional auction houses approaching $4,000! In the top section can been seen the likeness of General R. E. Lee flanked by a Confederate Sailor and Soldier, along with the 3rd National Confederate flag on the left, and the Confederate Battle flag on the right. On the face is the likeness of General Forrest while on the reverse the 3rd National Confederate flag appears once again. Because originals are so rare, each exquisite reproduction medal is marked with the date of the mold’s manufacture (2008).This recreation of an authentic period piece is a must for the Civil War enthusiast, re-enactor, living historian, student of the American Civil War, and medal collector. Because we strive to exactly replicate the original of each item we offer, we continually research and modify our offerings as necessary. In addition, where applicable, all are inscribed on the reverse or edge with our name and/or the mold creation date; so as not to be confused with, or presented to, some trusting individual as an authentic period piece.
