Signed in type by Recruiting Officer William Berkshire, who states in the broadside, in part...Having served during the war as a private in Company E, 3d Ohio Regiment, I know from experience the needs of soldiers, and as an Officer will do my best to supply them.
After being organized in Zanesville, McConnellsville, and Somerton, OH, starting in mid-September of 1861, the 62nd Ohio mustered in for three years' service on December 24, 1861 under the command of Colonel Pond. The regiment operated in the Shenandoah Valley, participating in the battle at Winchester under General Shields, and also joined McClellan's Peninsula campaign in August 1862. In July 1863, it participated in the assault upon Fort Wagner, losing 150 men, and again took part in the siege of Charleston. Throughout the entirety of 1864, the regiment was actively engaged with the army about Richmond, and in the spring of 1865 conducted siege operations at Petersburg and fought at Deep Bottom, Fair Oaks and Appomattox Courthouse. In September 1865, the 62nd was consolidated with the 67th Ohio.
