Cadets Battle at New Market Remembered
The piece recalls the 1864 Valley fight near New Market where Virginia Cadets of the Virginia Military Institute led by Colonel Shipp joined Breckenridge’s Confederate forces. The cadets charged up Shirley’s Hill through heavy fire, routed Union troops, and celebrated a hard won victory as eight comrades fell and many were wounded. The narrative honors their courage and frames the moment as a noble chapter in Virginia memory.
