Timid Youths to Hardened Veterans

"Timid Youths To Hardened Veterans" limited edition signed print by James Shockley. Each print measures 16 x 24 and comes with a certificate of authenticity as well as a short history of the 150th New York Volunteers at Gettysburg. On the morning of July 3, 1863, the 150th New York Volunteer Infantry saw its first combat, its first opponent none other than the famed "Stonewall Brigade" of the Army of Northern Virginia. The fighting began from earliest light with members of the regiment claiming to have fired 150 rounds apiece. Their calm, business-like demeanor led one veteran to remark "What magic could have occurred to turn these timid youths to hardened veterans".
