We know of 4:
Major Blackburn, 5th AL Bttn, Rodes Division. Bugled often as skirmish/sharpshooter line commander.
MG Dan Butterfield: borrowed his brigade buglers bugle and sounded the charge. (OK so he only sounded the bugle once....)
BG August Willich, sounded the Prussian calls on a silver officer's bugle. His brigade known as "The Bugle Brigade" as they bugled themselves over hill and dale.
BG Starkweather, was Colonel of the 1st Wisconsin, then as brigadier his distinctive little bugle was heard over the shouts and din of the battlefield. Sounded a charge on the first day of Chickamauga. Set an ambush and ordered his men not to fire until they heard the bugle sound. After a successful assault during the Tullahoma Campaign he sounded the ASSEMBLY and the brigade formed up by company and Reg't. etc.
Anyone else?
