The Stonewall Brigade (Virginia) was probably the premier Confederate infantry unit. They were known as "foot cavalry" for their speed of march. For sheer bravado, some Texas cavalry regiment once charged a Yankee gunboat. The outcome was less than favorable, but they had balls.
On the Union side, the Iron Brigade(Wisconsin) has a pretty good claim
