John J. Coppinger (11 October 1834 – 4 November 1909) was a career officer in the United States Army. A native of Ireland, in 1855 he joined a unit of the Warwickshire Militia that was being raised in England for service in the Crimean War. The war ended in 1856, before Coppinger's unit saw combat. He resigned in 1860, then joined the military of the Papal States during the Pope's effort to oppose Italian unification. Coppinger was taken prisoner during the conflict and held in Austria, then returned to Ireland after his release. In September 1861, Coppinger traveled to the United States and received a Union Army commission as a captain in the 14th Infantry Regiment. He served through the end of the American Civil War and was wounded during the August 1862 Second Battle of Bull Run.
