The Regiment participated in Stonewall Jackson’s Valley campaign, which ended with the battles of Cross Keys and Port Republic. The 13th’s action in the Battle at Cross Keys started by being ordered to secure the right flank from a Union turning movement. Later the Regiment participated in the confederate attack in support of Trimble’s brigade. Moving forward the 13th found itself facing three Union cannons supported by three regiments. Laying down and firing, the fire was effective enough to drive the crew from one of the guns on two different occasions. Lacking protection the Regiment moved further right into some woods. At the same time the Federals fell back too, and the grayclads together with Ewell’s men resumed the attack and repulsed Union General Fremont. The next day the Regiment marched to Port Republic arriving in time to participate in pursuing the retreating Federals.
