This has been in my collection for years and years on proud display for the Irish brigade part of my collection. now it can be apart of yours.

The Irishbrigade suffered its most severe casualties in December at theBattle of Fredericksburg, Va. where its fighting force was reduced from over 1600 to 256. The brigade was involved in the northern battleground at Fredericksburg where they assaulted the sunken road in front of Marye\'s Heights. Coincidentally, one of the Confederate regiments manning the sunken road defenses was a predominantly Irish Regiment commanded by Brigadier General (Irishbrother against brother some from the same family )
