If your completely unaware many brigades during the CW were understrength, perhaps you need to go back to reading a bit more. As it would suggest your not all that well read then, as you seem fond of saying. We will wait for you catch up.........maybe next year you can be up to speed. Or would think you'd know by the time Watie was promoted, the dept was in shambles and many regt were understrength, which would also make brigades understrength
Also you seemed to miss the question.....if their was 178.000 USCT, what battles did they participate in Brigade strength? If they were never grouped and fought in brigade strength, why would expect so of 10k. when it didn't happen with 175k.......
Not to mention CSA Indians did fight in Brigade Strength at Honey Springs under Cooper as Watie was still a Col at the time.
So despite your irrelevant comparisons, your even wrong in your statement they never fought as a brigade.
