Colonel Marlowe identifies himself as the commander of the 1st Illinois (i.e., 1st Illinois Volunteer Cavalry Regiment), and so would have been a colonel in the Volunteer Army, not the regular Army. As such, even as a brigade commander, he would not have had the authority on his own to order Sergeant Kirby to replace his senior regimental sergeant.
