Transman Civil War Hero?

I won't lie, I'm a lover of history. One of the blogs I regularly read is Civil War Women <http://civilwarwome n.blogspot. com/> . The blog is thick with biographies of women that lived and thrived in the Civil War era. One of the "women" she posted about <http://civilwarwome n.blogspot. com/2007/ 08/jennie- hodgers.html> caught my eye. He was Jennie Irene Hodgers, but lived most of his adult life as Albert D.J. Cashier. Albert served in the 95th Illinois Infantry Regiment. The 95th was part of the Army of the Tennessee, led by Ulysses S. Grant. The 95th engaged in many fierce battles including the siege at Vicksburg, the Red River Campaign and the combat at Guntown, Mississippi.
