He quickly rose in rank from sergeant major to captain and acting regimental commander for the 126th New York Volunteers. In letters written to his family in Penn Yan, New York, Brown describes his experiences at war: the unseemly carping between fellow officers, the fear that gripped men facing battle, and the longing to return home. Brown's letters also reveal an ambitious young man who not only wanted recognition but also wanted to assure himself of a financial future. Above all, this is the story of a courageous young man, told mostly in his own words. Few Civil War soldiers were as articulate as Morris Brown Jr., fewer served in a regiment that saw so much combat, still fewer commanded a regiment at such a young age, and even fewer were recognized by the newly minted Medal of Honor. 410 0$aExcelsior Editions 606 $aMedal of Honor$vBiography 606 $aSoldiers$zNew York (State)$zPenn Yan$vBiography 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yCivil War, 1861-1865$vBiography 607 $aNew York (State)$xHistory$yCivil War, 1861-1865$vBiography 607 $aPenn Yan (N.Y.)$vBiography 615 0$aMedal of Honor 615 0$aSoldiers 676 $a973.7/8092 676 $aB 700 $aMahood$b Wayne$01804931 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961750303321 996 $aFight all day, march all night$94353251 997 $aUNINA
