the confederate military leadership included many veterans from the united states army and united states navy who had resigned their federal commissions and had won appointment to senior positions in the confederate armed forces. many had served in the mexican–american war (including robert e. lee and jefferson davis), but others had little or no military experience (such as leonidas polk, who had attended west point.) the confederate officer corps was composed in part of young men from slave-owning families, but many came from non-owners. the confederacy appointed junior and field grade officers by election from the enlisted ranks. although no army service academy was established for the confederacy, many colleges of the south (such as the citadel and the virginia military institute) maintained cadet corps that were seen as a training ground for confederate military leadership. a naval academy was established at drewry's bluff, virginia in 1863, but no midshipmen had graduated by the time the confederacy collapsed.
