As result among Harvard alumni, Union military losses were 10% compared with a 21% casualty rate for the Confederate Army. The battle of Gettysburg (PA) had the highest amount of Harvard alumni serving in the Union Army who were killed in action (i.e. 11), in addition 3 Harvard alumni Confederates also died in this battle. Secondly, seven Crimson warriors made the supreme sacrifice for the Union at Antietam (MD) with 5 more were killed in the battles of Cedar Mountain (VA) and Fredericksburg (VA). As expected, most of the Harvard alumni who died in the service of the Union were born and raised in the Northeastern states (e.g. 74% from Massachusetts). However, 9 Harvard alumni Union casualties were from the Mid West including one from the border state of Missouri. None of these Harvard men were from southern states.

  • The Battles of Mansfield (Sabine Crossroads) and Pleasant Hill, Louisiana, 8 and 9 April 1864
    RICE UNIVERSITY DEAD-END AT THE CROSSROADS: THE BATTLES OF MANSFIELD (SABINE CROSSROADS) AND PLEASANT HILL, LOUISIANA, 8 AND 9 APRIL 1864 by Richard Leslie Riper, Jr. A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS Thesis Director's Signature Houston, Texas May, 1976 Abstract Dead-End at the Crossroads: The Battles of Mansfield (Sabine Cross¬ roads) and Pleasant Hill, Louisiana, 8 and 9 April 1864 Richard Leslie Riper, Jr. On 8 April 1864 a Union army commanded by Major General Nathaniel P. Banks was defeated by a Confederate army commanded by Major General Richard Taylor at the small town of Mansfield, Louisiana. In Union records the engagement was recorded as the battle of Sabine Crossroads, and the defeat signaled the "high-water mark" for the Union advance toward Shreveport. General Banks, after repeated urging by Major General Henry Hal- leck, General-in-Chief of the Union Army, had launched a drive up the Red River through Alexandria and Natchitoches to capture Shreveport, the industrial hub of the Trans-Mississippi Department. From New Or¬ leans and Berwick, Louisiana, and from Vicksburg, Mississippi, the Fédérais converged on Alexandria. From Little Rock, Arkansas, a Union column under Major General Frederick Steele was to join Banks at Shreve¬ port. Three major infantry forces and the Union Navy under Admiral David D. Porter were to participate in the campaign, yet no one was given supreme authority to coordinate the forces. Halleck's orders were for the separate commands only to co-operate with Banks--a clear viola¬ tion of the principle of unity of command.

WORK Bachelor of Arts Chapman University Orange, California 199,5 Bachelor of Fine Arts Chapman University Orange, California 1995 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May, 1998 THE FIGHTING TENTH CAVALRY: BLACK SOLDIERS IN THE UNITED STATES ARMY 1892-1918 Thesis Approved: 11 PREFACE On August 4, 1891, Colonel 1. K. Mizner, the commanding officer of the Tenth United States Cavalry Regiment, asked the Adjutant General of the army to transfer the Tenth Cavalry from Arizona "to a northern climate." For over twenty years, the Colonel complained, the Tenth had served in the Southwest, performing the most difficult field service of any regiment in the army and living in the worst forts in the country. No other cavalry regiment had "been subject to so great an amount of hard, fatigueing and continueing [sic]" service as the Tenth, service that entitled it "to as good stations as can be assigned. II Mizner challenged the Adjutant General to make his decision based on "just consideration" and not to discriminate against the Tenth "on account of the color of the enlisted men." t As one of fOUf regiments in the post-Civil War Army composed entirely of black enlisted men, discrimination was a problem the Tenth Cavalry constantly faced. Whether it was poor horses and equipment, inferior posts and assignments, or the hostility of the white communities the regiment protected, racial prejudice was an inescapable part of the regiment's daily life.

THE HISTORY OF The United States Air Force taces its origins EARLY to the establishment of the Aeronautical Dvision, created on August l, 1907 by the ENLISTED Chief Signal Officer of the Army However, the U.S. Army frst used "aerial devices" for AERONAUTICS military purposes during the American Civil War. when it created an unofficial balloon section.
