    Donavan handled that well. No disciplinary action necessary, just clear explanation of how and why they are all together. Display of leadership.

    One of my favorite movies. I first saw it at least 75 years ago.

    The 69th fought with buck and ball ammo , they were the stormtrooper, s of the northern army which meant they went in first and off course got slaughtered many times, it’s a badge of honour to the 69th , many of those brave young men were straight of the boat from Ireland and some only spoke Irish, long live meagher, s brigade.🇮🇪🇺🇸

    Prior to WWI the army was made up of local units - hence the 4th Alabama and the 69th NY. The Rainbow division got its name because the it covered the US like a rainbow - God Bless America !

    There were some Irish soldiers in the 4th Alabama during Mary Height's. They had to fire upon the Irish of the 69th, their own brethren whom with they emigrated from the Irish nation

      You might be thinking of Cobb's Legion from Georgia
