Manassas Tour Stop 8 (New York Monuments). 2002 NPS Tour
Guide:
On the afternoon of August 30, seeing the
Union lines in disarray following the repulse of Porter, Longstreet pushed
his massive columns forward and staggered the Union left flank. A brief,
futile stand on the ridge by the 5th and 10th New York Regiments ended in
slaughter. In five minutes the 5th New York lost 123 men killed, the
greatest loss of life in any single infantry regiment in an battle of the
Civil War |
