History of the 72nd Indiana Infantry Chapter 22: The Battle of Chickamauga

 Lightning in the Wilderness 

In this episode of War of the Rebellion: Stories of the Civil War, we ride with the 72nd Indiana into the chaos of Chickamauga. Chapter 22 brings us face to face with the fog of war, heroic defenses, and the psychological toll of two brutal days in the Georgia wilderness. From Alexander’s Bridge to the frantic night withdrawal, we reflect on how these men not only shaped their moment — but mirrored the soldiers of modern wars.
