COL, 32nd TX Cav (CSA)....The regiment elected Julius A. Andrews as colonel. Andrews, a native of Georgia, was only twenty-one years old when the war began. He originally enlisted as sergeant major in the First Louisiana Battalion. Having secured his discharge, he went to Texas where he enlisted as adjutant of Crump's Battalion and, at the organization of the Thirty-second, was elected colonel. He survived the War although wounded twice. By the time he applied for a pension in the state of Oklahoma, he could not find even one of his old comrades to witness his application. Andrews passed away in 1930 at the age of ninety. He was one of the last surviving members of the regiment.
