Here's a list of holdings re the 43rd NC at the U. S. Army Military History Command, Carlisle Barracks.

Maj. Blacknail's memoir looks like he may have written on what you seek as well as Crawford's book.
Also one diary and set of letters, and Wall's 1886 unit history could describe also.

Good hunting,

George Martin
