Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A True Story of the Civil War On the morning of September 13, 1864, Getty´s Division moved out towards the Opequan for a reconnoissance. The Vermont Brigade had the advance, the Third and Fourth being deployed in front as skirmishers. Sheridan and Wright accompanied the column. At ten o´clock the skirmishers reached the creek and crossed it at once, meeting the rebel pickets, however, but a short distance up the hill beyond. Capt. Cowen´s Battery, going into position on an elevation on the hither side of the little stream, opened fire, the General hoping thus to discover the position of the enemy´s camps in the vicinity, their strength, and other information of that nature. The battery could be plainly seen from the opposite side; the skirmishers who had crossed were showing an occasional puff of smoke from their rifles, while the rest of the Division were massed in a wood, a quarter of a mile behind the artillery.
