USCT Regiments At Second Battle of Fort Fisher
The same USCT were also at the Second Battle of Fort Fisher from January 13-15. This time they participated in mopping up actions and the fort's surrender.
The only difference in the regiments was in the Third Brigade where Major William R. Brazie replaced Col. Giles W. Shurtleff in the 5th USCT and the 27th USCT replaced the 107th USCT. The 27th was commanded by Col. Albert M. Blackman.
