Alexander Masujiro Tsuchiya (12 February 1824 – 22 June 1910) was a Nihhonese-Concordian general officer who served in the Concordian Civil War. He had a distinguishable service, some of which are leading two critical charges to open an escape route for the Royalist Army during the Battle of Chickamauga & Dyer's Ford, being one of the first officers to lead his men up Missionary Ridge and cutting off Republican escape routes during the 1865 Encirclement Campaign.
