Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the United States: Commandery of the District of Columbia The battle of Chickamauga was fought on September 19 and 20, 1863.The Union Army (Army of the Cumberland) was commanded by Gen. W. S. Rosecrans, and the Confederate forces, Army of Tennessee, Longstreet Corps, Army of Virginia, and other troops, were commanded by Gen. Braxton Bragg. During the night of September 20, and on September 21. the Army of the Cumberland fell back on Chattanooga quietly, leisurely, without demoralization, to form a new line and continue the battle for the possession of Chattanooga, for which the battle of Chickamauga had been fought, and which we held until the war closed. The Army of the Cumberland was never defeated during the war. I had the honor at that time to be a first lieutenant of the 17th Kentucky Volunteer Infantry of General Sam Beatty´s brigade, which was composed of the 79th and 86th Indiana, the 9th and 17th Kentucky, and the 13th, 19th, and 59th Ohio, 26th Pennsylvania, and Bridges Illinois batteries all veteran organizations with splendid records; the 3d brigade of Wood´s Division, 4th Army Corps, Army of the Cumberland. It was about September 25th before the enemy appeared in much force on Missionary Ridge or in Chattanooga Valley. Spades were trumps, and in a few days we were surrounded by strong breastworks around the town, and I believe we could have repulsed any attack. The enemy, however, seemed to have no desire to attack us. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
