Among the many officers who fought in the U.S. Civil War, who wore their beard, mustache, mutton chops or sideburns the best? Carpetbagger Adelbert Ames?  The oft-wounded Samuel Sprigs Carroll? The Maths-loving Brigadier General Benjamin Alvord? Major General Ambrose “I Invented Sideburns” Burnside? 

Make your pick.
