B & O Winter will pit forces under Major General Thomas J. Jackson against those of Brigadier General Frederick W. Lander. Jackson's command will include the Valley District and the Army of the Northwest. Lander's command will include his own division and units assigned to him from the Department of West Virginia.
Bank's Division is nearby at Harper's Ferry and could become involved, as could other elements of General Joseph E. Johnston's Division.
