Interesting article in a recent issue of Confederate Veteran
on Sally Louisa Tompkins of Virginia. She received a Commission as Captain, Cavalry, Unassigned. Confederate States Army.
She is the first known female in the world to hold a military commission. Not even Joan of Arc held a military commission.
