(Historical, 12 Turns) Joseph Hooker's XX Corps was ordered to create a diversion from its position on Thomas' right, in support of McPherson's movement through Snake Creek Gap. John W. Geary's 2nd Division was therefore ordered to move on Dug Gap to first screen McPherson's Movements farther to the south and second, to seize the gap and push forward sufficiently to protect McPherson's left flank, once he had cleared Snake Creek Gap. Warren Grigsby's Confederate cavalry and the 1st and 2nd Arkansas Mounted Infantry were posted in front of ther gap to protect against such a move by Sherman.
