Interestingly, the Requa Battery consisted of just 12 men. Signed and made official by Capt. Loomis Langdon, 1st U. S. Artillery as their brigade commander who is best known for the heroic role he played during the battle of Olustee, Florida. He remained in the army after the war and became a brigadier general before dying in service in 1910. Near fine.
