3rd Reserve Regiment, organized during the summer of 1864, was composed of
very young men, and over 45 years of age. Stationed at Mobile, it served in
General B.M. Thomas' Brigade, District of the Gulf. In February, 1865, the unit
was ordered to Selma. Six companies were assigned guard duty at the post of
Cahaba, and in March attached to General Clanton's command. It was reported to
be at Montgomery during April with approximately 300 effectives, and in May
was included in the surrender of the department of Alabama, Mississippi, and
East Louisiana. Colonel William M. Brooks, Lieutenant Colonel W.D. Bulger,
and Major Whitfield Walker were in command.
