Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Personal Experience of a Staff Officer at Mine Run and Albemarle County Raid, and as Commander of the 43rd Regiment U. S: Colored Troops, Through the Wilderness Campaign, and at the Mine Before Petersburg, Virginia From the brilliant victory at Rappahannock Station, Va., where I was serving on the staff of General Emory Upton, then Colonel commanding the Second Brigade, First Division, Sixth Army Corps, to March 27th, 1864, I was on duty with the grand old Brigade in which I had seen nearly three years active service. General Grant was with us in the field as commander-in-chief of all the Armies of the United States, March 26th. General Meade was commander of the Army of the Potomac. November 8th, in obedience to verbal orders from General Upton, the duties of Assistant Adjutant General of the brigade were discharged by me in addition to those of my former staff office of Assistant Inspector General, our Assistant Adjutant General having been disabled in the battle of the previous night, and sent to the hospital. The work in the two staff departments all devolved on me for over four months, till my promotion by the President, and order of March 19, 1864, took me to Philadelphia, to organize the 43rd Regiment U.S. Colored Troops.
