article move

[edit]

I moved the article from New Jersey Volunteers (Skinner's Greens) to New Jersey Volunteers. There are British military units with bracketed phrases as legitimate parts of their names, such as the West Yorkshire Regiment (Prince of Wales's Own), but this does not appear to be one of them: as far as I can tell (and according to the article), they are simply two different names for the same unit, with New Jersey Volunteers apparently being official and Skinner's Greens being a nickname. So "(Skinner's Greens)" could only appear in the article title if it was for disambiguation, which is totally unnecessary since there's no other article named "New Jersey Volunteers", nor likely to be one.
