  • La Prima Battaglia di Saltville fu combattuta il 2 ottobre 1864 nei pressi della cittadina di Saltville (Virginia) durante la Guerra di secessione americana tra le truppe dei Confederati, sia regolari che appartenenti alla Confederate Home Guard contro quelle dell'Unione, comprese alcune unità di cavalleria composte da soldati di colore, in prossimità di una salina poco distante dalla cittadina. Dopo la sconfitta delle forze unioniste le unità di cavalleria di colore fatte prigioniere o ferite sul campo di battaglia vennero massacrate dai Confederati, dando luogo a quello che viene ricordato come il Massacro di Saltville.

  • De Eerste Slag bij Saltville vond plaats tussen 1 oktober - 3 oktober 1864 in Smyth County, Virginia tijdens de Amerikaanse Burgeroorlog. Noordelijke infanterie en cavalerie (waarvan enkele eenheden die bestonden uit Afro-Amerikaanse soldaten) vielen onder leiding van brigadegeneraal de zoufabrieken bij Saltville aan. Hij werd opgehouden door Zuidelijke homeguard en militie-eenheden bij Clinch Mountain en Laurel Gap. Zo kreeg de Zuidelijke bevelhebber brigadegeneraal de nodige tijd om zijn troepen bij Saltville te concentreren om de Noordelijke aanval af te slaan. Burbridge viel verschillende malen de Zuidelijke stellingen aan maar kon de vijand niet breken. (nl)
