Colored Infantry Civil War
Regiment Coloed Infantry
102D U.S.
Captain A. E. Lindsay being among the killed and Lieutenant H. H. Alvord among the severely wounded.
" While reflecting upon some reports which have just reached me from the front, where we have a detail of 300 men from our regiment, under command of Colonel Chipman, I reverted back to the time of the organization of the 102d. During that time it was almost a by-word, and those connected with it subjects of derision. But now its praises are on
every one's lips, and here, at least, it is an honor to belong to what was once known as the 1st Michigan Colored Regiment.
