133rd Special Reconnaissance Company

The 133rd Special Reconnaissance Company was a U.S Army unit. It consisted of U.S. citizens who either grew up in the Confederate States or lived there for a long period of time. As a result, they talked and acted as Confederates. This, along with C.S. uniforms and weapons, allowed the company to deceive C.S. troops long enough to establish a bridgehead on the south side of the Tennessee River.
