    Pretty sure he would rather be a Yankee zouave.
    Just basing it on his concern of lack of yankee units representing zouaves.

    No better or harder fighting zouave unit than the Tigers, no yankee will be able to match our prowess on the battlefield.

    Nah. Confederate Zouave all the way. Just disappointed that there won't be a union Zouave company walking across the field at us. Would be a great sight.

    I'm sure there will be eventually, we'll most likely fight the iron brigade though due to our location historically during the battle

    Company k of the 69th New York (militia) wore a Zouave Jacket during the battle of 1st Bull Run. However the Company stopped using that jacket when the regiment was re-enrolled as the 69th New York Volunteer infantry. If that's what you are asking.
