Another amusing quote from the War. This one by a somewhat jaded Lt. Col. Bragg of the 6th Wisconsin. After fighting up Turner's Gap at South Mountain the 6th Wisconsin of the Iron Brigade was forced to wait out the night on the picket line because their relief refused to come up after nightfall.

"Soon after daylight my regiment was relieved by the Second New York... who had been lying in the field, under cover of a stone wall, at a safe distance in the rear, refreshing themselves with a good night's sleep, after a long and fatiguing march of some ten miles."

Nobody likes New Yorkers I guess :mrgreen:
