  • Enfields in Kershaw's Brigade

    The Enfield is the weapon of choice for Co H 7th SC for the Chickamauga LH. Here's a pretty cool quote from John Coxe describing the fighting on Snodgrass Hill...........Jerry Stiles

    "They were allowed to get within twenty yards of our position in the thick undergrowth along the road, then, before they visualized our presence, we rose up as one and poured into them such a volley from our Enfields as to make many of them bite the dust for the last time, while many more fell badly wounded"- John Coxe, 2nd SC

    Also, the South Carolina Relic Room has the Short Enfield that was carried by Richard Kirkland when he was killed at Chickamauga.
