History of Caudill's Army

Company F of the 5th Kentucky Infantry was formed on October 22, 1861 from the men of Letcher County and was commanded by Captain Benjamin E. Caudill. The company called themselves "Caudill's Army" and was nicknamed "The Yahoos." They disbanded at Hazel Green, Kentucky, on October 20, 1862. Most of the men joined the 10th Kentucky Mounted Rifles raised by Colonel Benjamin E. Caudill on November 1862. In March of 1865, the regiment was reorganized and named the 13th Kentucky Cavalry. They disbanded at Christianburg, Virginia, on April 12, 1865, but surrendered on April 30, 1865, at Mt. Sterling, Kentucky.
