4. Several Counties in Missouri 1863. General Order No. 11
"Order Number 11 was the most drastic and repressive military measures directed against civilians by by the Union Army during the Civil War. In fact...it stands as the harshest treatment ever imposed on United States citizens under the plea of military necessity in our Nations History."

Thousands displaced,killed and property destroyed
