Civil War Artillery

First Regiment Light Artillery

The batteries composing it served in all the principal armies, and some of them bore conspicuous parts in most of the important battles in which the western armies were engaged, while some of them served in the extreme south.
Their services in battle were creditable wherever an opportunity offered, but like all other batteries failed in gaining a proportionate notoriety or reputation with that of the cavalry or infantry arm of service, owing to a less amount of correspondence with the public press of the country.
