Re: Upcoming 143rd annivesary of Petrel capture...
You might try and get hold of Ken Byrd up n Indiana as he was active in getting the historical marker for the Petral erected down there in Yazoo City. It has since been stolen. I know the 11th and 17th Arkansas Mtd INfantry was present there but I can't remember much off the top of my head about the artillery but will check and see what I can find out.
