Civil War American
THIRTEENTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
Truly, the State of Michigan has reason to be proud of the troops she has sent out to defend the government and the Union. "
The 13th was prominent among the brave regiments that breasted that fearful current of disaster on December 31st, which was sweeping away the Federal right. Its gallant services cannot be over-estimated. Fighting desperately, it aided much in turning the tide of affairs in favor of the Union army. When the roll of the regiment was called at the close of this sanguinary strife, none were missing except the dead and wounded.
