Confederate General Hood wounded at the battle of Chickamauga, Georgia, American Civil War, 1863. The battle, fought on 18-20 September 1860 claimed over 34,000 casualties and saw the Confederate Army of the Tennessee under General Braxton Bragg repulse an offensive by the Union Army of the Cumberland commanded by Major General Rosecrans. General John Bell Hood (1831-1879) had a reputation for bravery, being one of the few Civil War generals who personally led his troops into combat on the field of battle. He lost the use of an arm after being wounded at Gettysburg, and had a leg amputated as a result of the wounds he suffered at Chickamauga. He returned to active duty however, being appointed commander of the Army of the Tennessee in July 1864.
