In the sub-series, Beyond the Blue and Gray, we delve into the stories of the unique units of the Civil War. This episode I sit with Colonel James Tierney to discuss the 69th New York Regiment. The 69th is the most storied infantry regiment of the United States Military. Not only did it serve in the Civil War, but it continues to serve today. Learn the story of how they earned their nickname, garnered the respect of the world for the fighting Irishman, and hear the story of the most highly decorated family in history.

Get yourself some 69th Whiskey! One dollar of every bottle sold goes to support the Sixty-Ninth Infantry Regiment Historical Trust, a 501-c-3 not-for-profit foundation created to preserve the history and traditions of the Regiment, and provide financial and other assistance to unit members, veterans, and/or their families.

On this episode I interview author Tom Elmore on his book, "Potter's Raid Through South Carolina: The Final Days of the Confederacy." We learn about this Yankee raid that occurred after Lee had officially surrendered. We hear the story of Medal of Honor Recipients and defiant ladies with gardening shears. Was the raid necessary? Was this a surgical military operation or a ruthless bout of destruction?

On the Untold Civil War Podcast we have a sub-series called, "Beyond the Blue and Gray." On this series we bring a magnifying glass to the blue and gray hosts in order to better understand the culture, uniforms, traditions, and histories of the individual regiments that made up these armies.

On this episode I interview Allan Payton. Mr. Payton is the expert on the 19th Georgia and has direct ancestral ties to the regiment. He gives us a better understanding of the regiment and a better understanding of one of the Union's biggest defeats of the war. What might surprise our listeners is that this defeat occurred not on the fields of Virginia, but the peninsula of Florida.

Learn more about the 19th GA and Mr. Payton on his Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/19thgeorgiainfantry/
