About This Book

A detailed regimental history compiled under official military supervision traces the unit's origin, deployments, and engagements, and records battles, sieges, and honors awarded. It lists casualties and individual acts of distinction, explains badges and insignia granted, and includes biographical sketches of named leaders and other distinguished personnel. Prefatory material frames the work as both a reference for serving members and a public account intended to encourage esprit de corps by preserving service records and trophies. The volume is organized as a formal annal with general orders, introductions, and sequential parts meant to form a continuous official record of the regiment's services.
