Editing Army of Northern Virginia (section)

===Organization at the setout of the Northern Virginia Campaign===
The [[Seven Days Battle]] showed the Army still suffered from insufficient organization in army command. General Lee subdivided the army again, but this time only with single commands. He introduced a corps-like structure of command, and as an intermediate army management he named the left and right wing. The Army was organized on August 28, 1862, as follows.<ref>The War of the Rebellion, Series I, Vol. XII, Part II, p. 546ff: [http://cdl.library.cornell.edu/cgi-bin/moa/pageviewer?frames=1&coll=moa&view=50&root=%2Fmoa%2Fwaro%2Fwaro0016%2F&tif=00548.TIF&cite=http%3A%2F%2Fcdl.library.cornell.edu%2Fcgi-bin%2Fmoa%2Fmoa-cgi%3Fnotisid%3DANU4519-0016 Disposition on the setout of the Northern Virginia Campaign]</ref>

The Army's Reserve Artillery consisted of one regiment and two battalions. They stayed in the area of Richmond in the course of the whole [[Northern Virginia Campaign]] and only returned on September 3, 1862, to the Army. Major General Hill's Division also remained in the eastern parts of Richmond with the order to bind [[George B. McClellan|McClellan's]] attention as long as possible.<ref>The War of the Rebellion, Series I, Vol. XII, Part II, p. 176: [http://ehistory.osu.edu/osu/sources/recordView.cfm?page=176&dir=016 Hill's order]</ref> As it became predictable that the Army of the Potomac would soon be transferred to support Pope, Lee ordered the Division north.<ref>The War of the Rebellion, Series I, Vol. XII, Part II, p. 553: [http://ehistory.osu.edu/osu/sources/recordView.cfm?page=553&dir=016 Hill's stay]</ref> Hill never entered battle in the campaign. A total of about 54,000 soldiers saw action throughout the campaign.
