Description

La "Batalla de Cedar Mountain" també coneguda com a Slaughter's Mountain o Cedar Run , va tenir lloc el 9 d'agost de 1862 el comtat de Culpeper, Virgínia, durant la Guerra de Secessió. Les forces de la Unió, dirigides pel general de divisió Nathaniel P. Banks, van atacar les forces confederades del general de divisió Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson prop de Cedar Mountain, quan els confederats avançaven sobre la ciutat de Culpeper per prevenir l'avanç de la Unió per Virgínia. Aquesta batalla va ser la primera de la Campanya del Nord de Virgínia de 1862.

El 26 de juny de 1862, el general de divisió John Pope va ser nomenat cap del recentment creat Exèrcit de Virgínia. Pope va desplegar el seu exèrcit al llarg del nord de Virgínia. El seu flanc dret, comandat pel general de divisió Franz Sigel, estava situat a Sperryville sobre les Muntanyes Blue Ridge. Al seu centre, amb el general de divisió N.P. Banks, estava a Little Washington, i la seva ala esquerra, sota les ordres del general de divisió Irvin McDowell, estava a Falmouth, sobre el Riu Rappahannock.
