4th div 2nd corp AOP. Anyone know the division flag for the above division. I believe when there was a 4th division the badge was green. Anyone know. Upon the reorganization of the Army of the Potomac, March 23, 1864, the III Corps was discontinued, and two of its three divisions were ordered transferred to the II Corps. Under this arrangement the II Corps was increased to 81 regiments of infantry and 10 batteries of light artillery. The units of the old II Corps were consolidated into two divisions, under Barlow (now a general) and Gibbon; the two divisions of the III Corps were transferred intact, and were numbered as the 3rd and 4th, with Generals David B. Birney and Gershom Mott in command. By this accession, the II Corps attained in April, 1864, an aggregate strength of 46,363, with 28,854 present for duty. |

Ah, I meant to mention it to you. I looked myself and couldn't find one for this Division. In theory the colour for a fourth Division was green. It seems fair to assume that this would follow here but I just can't find mention of it anywhere. |
