Civil War Infantry
Twenty Third Infantry
I need not attempt to describe the shout of pride, of triumph, and of joy, that went up from our corps. The hill and battery were ours. The major who bore our beautiful banner there was Major Dunn of the 3d Tennessee Infantry. Until that hour we had known but little of the magnificence of that
" Flag of the free heart's hope and home,
By angel hands to valor given,.
Whose stars have lit the welkin dome,
And all whose hues were born in heaven.
