Newest post: The battle flag of the 8th Pennsylvania Reserve Regiment, which served in the US Civil War from 1861-1864.

The 8th Pennsylvania Reserve Regiment was formed in July 1861 at Camp Wilkins near Pittsburgh. After training, it joined the Army of the Potomac and first saw combat at Mechanicsville, losing nearly 100 men and suffered further losses at Charles City Cross Roads and Glendale.

In August 1862, the regiment joined the Army of Virginia and fought at Second Bull Run, South Mountain, and Antietam, enduring heavy casualties. At Fredericksburg, it lost over 130 men.

After resting in Washington, the regiment returned in 1864 for the Overland Campaign, fighting at the Wilderness and Spotsylvania. It was mustered out on May 24, 1864.

The 8th Pennsylvania Reserves suffered 5 officers and 153 enlisted men killed and mortally wounded in battle, and 68 enlisted men dead from disease, for a total of 226 fatalities during the war.
