Description
The title story tells of two brothers in an unnamed Federal regiment during an unnamed battle (well, it starts marching along a river in the fog, crossing a pontoon bridge, going up through a partially ruined town, and the next day assaulting Confederate forces heavily entrenched on the Heights behind the town). It was as a result of that fight that the unit took for themselves the name "The Little Regiment".
