Andrew...to make a long story short...enlisted at the start and the crazy fool survived all 4 years. He was in alot of major battles and followed Lee to Appomatox. He surrendered there in 1865.
Of the 34 men of the 14th that surrendered at Appomatox, he was the only man from his Company. That poor man must have felt really rough lol...I hear he as mean as a snake too..that probaly helped
