The order of battle is coming together for Maryland, My Maryland. Birney's Division will have a battalion of around 70 military personnel. Federal Commander Mike Lavis has outlined what unit Birney's will be representing in each scenario. Where available, I have linked a reference website so you may understand the unit and their action at South Mountain and Antietam.
