Michigan Regiments

Twenty-Sixth Regiment Infantry

I think the well organized and disciplined regiments (and yours was all that), from the northwestern States were on the whole the best soldiers in the army. The trouble with some of those western regiments was that they did not appreciate the value of subordination and discipline. But the 26th had no fault of this kind. I believe that an army of such regiments as that would be superior to any army in the world.
