During the Shenandoah Campaign of 1864, approximately 5,000 Union soldiers were killed, wounded, or missing. This campaign, primarily led by Union General Philip Sheridan against Confederate forces under General Jubal Early, involved several significant battles in the Shenandoah Valley. The Union's strategic goal was to secure the valley and prevent Confederate raids into the North. The campaign ultimately ended in a Union victory, but it came at a considerable cost in terms of casualties.
