Edward was either stupid, brave or just had major bad luck lol....he was wounded at Manassas, Gettysburg & Fredericksburg and was captured in Nov 1864 at Ninevah. He was sent to Point Lookout Prison in Maryland. He survived and was paroled in May 1865 after the war was over.
In letters a freind of his wrote to his wife in Stanton, Beale said about Edward " like the redskin he will charge with gallantry but for the wounds he receives. I am unsure he would not survive this war if not for the large roan".

my reckonin is that he was just plum crazy...lol
