I am not giving up on the 44th USCT! I will keep searching, has anyone found anything in the Official Records? I a bit confused to which volume the battle would be under. I don't believe it would have been included in the Atlanta Campaign. But I will search the other Volumes around it and see what comes up. But I have searched the OR'S tons of times and I have never come across the 44th USCT losing a flag, not a single report from the Confederates. But there are tons of Union flags I have found not mentioned in the Official Records.

I can not assume the flag was captured, I must find hard evidence the flag or flags were captured at Dalton. I will continue to search!!!

Have a good morning,

Shawn Prouty
