Following the American Civil War Sesquicentennial with day by day writings of the time, currently 1863.

Sunday, June 19th.

The regiment moved its camp farther back, and occupied a line of breastworks built day before yesterday by the rest of the regiment while the five companies were preparing for, and taking part in, the charge just described. Here we were permitted to remain and rest all day. I hear that Lieutenant Lincoln, of the 126th, has lost an arm.
