Union Brigadier General Abner Doubleday's men following Brigiader General John Gibbon's Brigade on their eastward mach along the Warrenton Turnpike.Realizing the severity of the challenge he accepted,General Gibbon asked General Doubleday for assistance.Union artillery would move into position on the right of their line on a rise that would become known as Battlery Heights.Still General "Stonewall" Jackson had placed his entire Corps in a well considered,easily defensible position.The ferociously bloody contest he initiated would rage for hours,each side too proudly stubborn to give way.General Gibbon would quickly discover that those men were not the hose artillery as he had thought but instead they were General "Stonewall" Jackson's seasoned veterans.
A soldier of the Union's 7th Wisconsin grimly told of the fighting both sides endured."We soon found that we had to deal with General Ewell's whole division of picked men.We adanced within hailing distance of each other,then halted and laid down,and ny God,what a slaughter !No one appeared to know the object of the fight,and there we stood one hour,the men falling all around ; but we got no orders to fall back, and Wisconsin men would rather die than fall back without orders."
General Doubleday would later expand the envents as they unfolded."I have the honor to report that on Thursday,August 28,1862,about 5:30 p.m.,while my brigade was marching in the rear of General Gibbon's Brigade,on the road from Gainsville to Centerville,a well directed and heavy fire opened upon us at very short range from a battery on a hill to the north of us.Sheltering my men as much as possible behind a small rise of ground in the road.I directed them to halt and await orders.Receiving none,and unable to obtain them I almost immediately sent two regiments of my brigade the Fifty Sixth Pennsylvnia,under Colonel Sull'n A. Meredth,and the Seventy-Sixth New York ,under Colonel William P. Wainwright to aid General Gibbon,who had pushed his whole brigade forward through a piece of the woods to attack the battery,under the impression that it was merely supported by cavalry.General Gibbon was received with a tremendous fire from a large army in position,under General "Stonewall" Jackson,General Ewell,and General Taliaferro.Knowing he would be overpowered if not succored,I immediately complied with his earnest to,and sent him the two regiments referred to,leaving one regiment in reserve.
Campbell's Battery,attached to General Gibbon's Brigade,was posted on the right,but having no infantry support,was unable to open fire.I was thus compelled to send my only remaining regiment,the Ninety Fifth New York,under Lieutenant Colonel James B. Post,as a support to the battery.The battle lasted until the approach of night,when the enemy ceased to fire,and the contest ended.Throughout the whole action my men held their ground unflinchingly,and in this their maiden fight covered themselves with glory.It will be seen from the inclosed tabular statement that our loss in killed,wounded,and prisoners was nearly one half of our force engaged."
The Union 's General Gibbon would add of Campbell's Battery,Campbell's pieces came up on the gallop,the fences along the pike being torn down to let them pass into the field.With shells bursting about them,they were placed into position and began to reply rapidly from the knoll from where I had first caught site of the enemy's guns."
Confederate Major General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson would speak with pride of the actions of the brigade whse name he shared."The gallantry and heroism dislayed by our troops is beyond all praise.The First Brigade was more exposed than any other,and more than sustained the reputation which,under the leadership of the major-general commanding onthe same field over twelve months ago,it achieved,and which distinguished its veteran troops in many of the headrest-fought battles of the war.Colonel William S.H.Haylor Fifth Virginia,who commanded it,was worthy of his heric command.No more exalted recongnition of his worth and services can be uttered and no higher tribute can be paid him than to declare that he was worthy of the command of the Stonewall Brigade in the action of the August 28,1862.

Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works Jo-Ellen Darcy accepted the invitation of Navajo Nation Council Delegate Walter Phelps to visit the Nation and speak to the 2016 Winter Council Session of the Navajo Nation Council Jan. 27.
Darcy started the day by meeting with Navajo Nation President Russell Begaye, Vice President Jonathan Nez, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Los Angeles District Commander Col. Kirk Gibbs, Albuquerque District Commander Lt. Col. Patrick Dagon, and their staffs.
A key topic of discussion during the session was the Nation's lack of infrastructure, particularly access to water.
"Navajo Nation leadership focused on the need for earthen dams and their ability to store and conserve water," said Gibbs. "They are in great need and I think USACE and the federal government have opportunities to help."
One of the primary goals of the USACE Tribal Nations Program is to reach out and partner with Tribes on water resources projects, a theme echoed by Darcy during her address to the council.
"We are a leader in environmental restoration and protection; about 20 percent of our annual budget is for environmental projects," said Darcy. "I'm hoping that this syncs up quite nicely with what the tribes are leading in doing and that's a lot of habitat recovery."
The USACE program also acknowledges the wisdom that Tribes bring to the table and how our programs, projects and activities are enhanced by their input.
"We're listening to, as well as applying, tribal perspectives for improving our planning process," added Darcy. "I think it's produced a better and much more sensitive approach to cultural projects that we have to be mindful of whenever we undertake a project."
District Tribal Liaison Quana Higgins stated that the Los Angeles District received fiscal 2015 funds, under the Floodplain Management Services Program, that will provide floodplain mapping for much of the Navajo Nation by August 2016.
"This type of service is invaluable for tribal nations due to data gaps on reservation lands," said Higgins. "This can promote the spirit of wise use of floodplains by tribal communities before development."

Toda la energia extra mejor usemosla para aprender como amarnos a nosotros mismos, hacer nuestros anhelos y sueños realidad y alcanzar La Paz interior.
