On May 3, 1861, the 15th US Infantry was activated, with its initial headquarters at Wheeling, WV, followed by Cleveland, OH, Newport Barracks, KY, and finally Fort Adams, RI. By the end of the Civil War, the regiment had fought in 22 major engagements, including Shiloh, Corinth (1st), Chattanooga, Chickamauga, Murfreesboro, and Atlanta as a part of BG King's Brigade of Johnson's Division, XIV Army Corps of the Army of the Cumberland. The regiment was a key element of the only regular brigade in Sherman's Army.
