The regiment was mustered into the United States service 10 Sep 1862. Went into barracks at Des Moines;from there to Keokuk, and thence to Schofield Barracks at St. Louis. The first orders received were to send the regiment to Pilot Knob or Iron Mountain, MO. A temporary camp was there made. The next move was to Camp Patterson. The regiment was ordered off on a trip through Missouri to the southwestern part of the state, and thence was attached to the Department of the Gulf. Participated in the Vicksburg campaign, and was engaged in the battles of Port Gibson, Black River Bridge, Champion Hills, Vicksburg, Jackson and Milliken's Bend. At the close of this campaign, the regiment went up Red River, where numerous skirmishes were had. It then went to Fort Esperanza, Texas, and afterward took part in the battle at Fort Blakely, while approaching Mobile. After the surrender of that city, the regiment entered it, but soon departed for Texas, going to Galveston and Houston. From there it went to Brownsville, on the Colorado River, Texas, and was there when the war ended. The regiment was mustered out at Davenport. It was distinguished for its brave conduct in the numerous engagements in which it participated. |
