Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of the Seventy-Eighth Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry The 78th Regiment Pennsylvania Infantry Volunteers comprises two different organizations. The first organization was mustered into the United States Service October 12, 1861, and was mustered out November 4, 1864. The connection between the two organizations is two-fold. First, the new organization succeeded to the name and number, 78th Regiment Pennsylvania Infantry Volunteers. Second, the men who served in the first organization, and whose term of service had not expired when the old regiment was mustered out, and the men of the old regiment who had re-enlisted were transferred to Companies A and B of the new regiment, and comprised nearly the whole of these two companies in the new organization. To avoid confusion, we have made two distinct rolls, and the names of the men who served in both organizations will appear in both rolls, and the date of muster will show how far each one participated in the services and honors of each organization. If this Regimental History were designed only for surviving comrades an outline sketch would be sufficient, and each comrade could, from the store-house of his own memory, fill up the gaps; but, being for all comrades, their descendants and the people of the State, we deem it wise to explain military terms and give sketches of everyday camp life. If this history were written with special regard for literary beauty, or, as a specimen of interesting narrative, we could blend fact and fiction in such a way as to make it more interesting to our readers; but, being designed for an accurate record of facts, all fiction, however interesting, must be excluded.
