Re: 5th Cavalry MSM (old), Co B deserters

Bruce,

I hope you are finding a chance to relax a bit on this holiday weekend.

As always, I really enjoy reading your posts on the message board.

In your response to the questions about the Wilson brothers recently, you mentioned the frequent depredations by members of the (Old) Fifth Cavalry MSM. I was wondering if you had a short list of some of the more flagrant acts by members of this regiment. If you do, could you share them with me? Also which atrocities were committed against southern sympathizers in Andrew and Buchanan Counties by former soldiers of the (Old) Fifth Cavalry MSM after the regiment was mustered out of service in June of 1863?

Thanks for taking the time to respond to my queries.

Best regards,

Larry L. Dishman
