  • Arms and uniforms of the 4th Mississippi Inf and 15th Arkansas Inf at Fort Henry

    Does anyone know what type of arms and uniforms the 4th Mississippi Infantry and the 15th Arkansas (Gee) Infantry had during the Fort Henry/Donelson campaign? The 4th was suppose to have been one of the two well trained regiments at Fort Henry. Thank you.

      Dan, I tried to write you back this weekend, but your inbox was full.

      Sorry folks, you can return to your regularly scheduled program.
