History of the Regiment
The 39th New York was assembled in 1861 by the special authority of the War Department and was formed a few months later. The 39th saw little action in 1861-1862, but made its name at Gettysburg. The regiment bravely held off some of Pickets Charge and Captured three Rebel battle flags. The regiment was rewarded for its valor. Throughout the rest of the civil war the regiment saw much action, and again helping the Union win victories. If you want a more detailed report on the 39th:
