    Does anyone know the order of march for the Army of the Potomac during the Grand Review? More specifically when 2nd corps made its way past the Reviewing stand?

    Also, did the 24th corps march or were they on occupation duty in Virginia during the Review.


    Thanks,

    Steve Acker

    Hi Steve,

    I may have an order of march that was in the NY Times at home. Will check this evening.

      The 24th remained behind on occupation duty. The 25th was being assembled for embarkation to the Rio Grande, which caused some later controversy, discussed here: http://cwmemory.com/2015/05/20/on-th...-grand-review/
