This icon represents the various Union soldiers who are in control of the bridge over the river in Tennessee. The bridge and the areas on both sides of it are full of Union soldiers when Rosa Millard gets there. Some, identified by Drusilla as "a brigade of cavalry" (91) - are holding the crowd of self-emancipated slaves away from the bridge, others are preparing to blow it up, still others are described as "riding up and down the cliff" above the water or bivouacked "down at the water" (108).
