Thought I knew almost all the battles. This was a new one to me! Possibly because White Oak Swamp was really just a large skirmish with only a handful of casualties. At the same time this was going on on the confederate right, the confederate left under Longstreet was having a go at the Union army at Frayser's Farm.

True - only a handful.
But the men were just as scared during the battle. And after, just as dead.
