Civil War
Third Regiment Infantry
III. Marksmen, never in the fight cheapen your rifles. When you fire, make sure and hit. In woods and abatis, one man in three is to fire, the others reserve their loads to repel an onset or to head a rush.
It is with short rushes and this extra fire, from time to time, that such ground is gained. Each man up in front line, none delaying, share danger alike, then the peril and loss will be small.
