High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! XXV Corps was a corps of the Union Army during the American Civil War. It was unique in that it was made up almost entirely of African-American troops, which had previously belonged to the X and XVIII Corps. On December 3, 1864, the two corps of the Army of the James were reorganized. Its white units went to the XXIV Corps, while the black units became the XXV Corps, under the command of Maj. Gen. Godfrey Weitzel. The new XXV Corps served without any particular distinction during the waning days of the Petersburg Campaign; its main noteworthy action was being the first command to occupy Richmond on April 3. It was subsequently sent to Texas to serve as the "Army of Occupation" against Napoleon III's French presence in Mexico. The XXV Corps was disbanded in January 1866.
