            By September 10^th the Federal units that would participate in the Battle of Chickamauga had crossed the Tennessee River and were maneuvering for position.  Most of the Reserve Corps, commanded by Major General Gordon Granger,  had been left in Tennessee stretching from Nashville to the Tennessee, protecting the railroad.  The 1^st and 2nd brigades of the 1^st Division, and the 2nd brigade of the 2^nd Division were all that remained on the field of battle.  The 2^nd Division commander was not present, so the 2^nd brigade was nominally placed under the command of the 1^st Division, though it seemed to have also taken orders directly from General Granger.

            The Pioneer brigade was also left behind, and did not take part in the battle. It did, however, arrive in Chattanooga on September 15th, and remained there constructing bridges, repairing sawmills, and improving the fortifications around the city.
