• Link Colonel to Colonel (United States)

• Done

• Can we get McDowell's rank in the lead? I've taken several Civil War battle articles through GAR, and it's a frequent request to include ranks.

• Done

• "Engagements American Civil War" - This parameter is usually used to list battles, not the overall war

• Done

• " United States Army

Union Army" - Do both of these need listed in the infobox? It's a touch redundant

• Only Union then, after all they were volunteers and not regulars

• Link the Odd Fellows

• Done

• Link Harrisburg

• Done

• Link the various ranks in the formation article to the articles specifically for that rank in the US Army.

• Done

• Don't need to ink Montgomery County in the table, it's linked in the text paragraph above it

• Done

• Link companies at first mention in the text

• Done

• Consider linking Philadelphia, I don't know how well known this is internationally. Same with Baltimore

• Done

• Link steamer

• Done

• Link 2nd Lieutenant. Also, go ahead and spell out Second, because it seems to be spelled out more in military sources, unless the abbreviated 2nd Lt. is used

• Done

• Link Confederate at first mention

• Done

• Link Brigadier General to Brigadier General (United States)

• Done

• "In the preliminary movements of the First Battle of Bull Run, the division left camp on the Old Fairfax Road, arriving at Sangster's Station late on 18 July" - I'd consider linking to the campaign rather than the First Battle of Bull Run here, as the campaign is more the topic than the battle in the march to Centreville

• Done

2.

• Refs 6 and 9 need via parameters for newspapers.com

• Done

3.

• Do you think it would be appropriate to include a couple sentences towards the beginning about the start of the Civil War?

• Have added a brief mention of Fort Sumter
