An excerpt from the history of the 19th:
The first serious engagement in which the Nineteenth participated was a t Thompson's Station, Tenn., March 5, 1863, where it displayed those qualities of heroism that afterwards distinguished this regiment on many a hard fought field.
The Nineteenth with the other regiments of the brigade was furiously as saulted by a confederate force under General Van Dorn, estimated 18,000 strong and a sanguinary conflict ensued.
The confederates made three separate charges upon the brigade which wer e gallantry repulsed, in one of which the Nineteenth captured the colors of a Mississippi regiment. The engagement lasted five hours until the ammunition was exhausted and the overwhelming number of the confederates made it necessary to surrender. The loss of the Nineteenth in this engagement was 113 killed and wounded. Nor did the Union troops surrender until the enemy had paid dearly for his victory.
After the officers had been exchanged and the enlisted men paroled, the r egiment was reorganized at Camp Chase, Ohio, and in June returned to Nashville and took part in the advance upon Tullahoma. The Nineteenth assisted in fortifying McMinnville, Tenn., in October, and at that time was in the Second Brigade, Third Division, Twentieth Corps.
They later joined Sherman's March to the Sea.
