The 24^th Michigan was the last regiment to join the famous “Iron Brigade” and was received by the veterans in the other regiments in the Brigade with some skepticism, however, in a short time they showed that they were worthy to bear the reputation for hard fighting that the rest of the Brigade had earned in earlier battles.

This is a hard to find regimental and the first original copy we have seen in 20 years.  [ad]
