The 3rd Maryland Volunteer Cavalry (aka "Bradford Dragoons") was a cavalry regiment that served in the Union Army during the American Civil War. While some claim the 3rd Maryland Cavalry has the distinction of being the only regiment of "galvanized Yankees" which was actively engaged against Confederate forces, this is an absurd thought. There were THOUSANDS of “southern Unionists” who fought against the Confederacy. Every CSA state (except S.Carolina) fielded at least one regiment of white troops to fight for the Union.
