The artifacts pictured above were found in the area of the cornfield where the 21st Massachusetts had fought. The 21st had close to four hundred men who were present for duty at the beginning of the battle. When the battle ended, less than two-hundred were left standing... the regiment's heaviest loss of the entire war |
