I am writing about this regiment in my Saw the Elephant Civil War Blog in connection with its attack on Fort Wagner and death of its Lt.-Col., James M. Green. A fort on Folly Island, S.C. was named for him.
This regiment was primarily used in coastal operations and was at the Second Battle of Fort Fisher January 13-15, 1865.
