1,800 men on their rolls as an average, and the heavy artillery commands about 2,200. In the light batteries (six-gun batteries), 250 was a common enrollment. By noting these facts the regimental losses in killed will be better understood, and an approximate idea of the percentage of loss will be obtained. These figures are far above the plane of ordinary statistics. They represent the measure of blood which an unflinching patriotism gave in exchange for the perpetuity of the Nation and the ransom of the Republic. note.--Many of the regiments marked in the following tables as having reenlisted and served through the war, preserved their organization by reason of a large number of recruits (who had unexpired terms to serve), rather than by the number of veterans who reenlisted. Some of the three-years' regiments whose term expired in 1864, and were discharged and discontinued, contained in their ranks more reenlisted veterans than some commands which served through the war.
