Two days after fighting for the first time, at Antietam, 2nd Lieutenant Joseph G Cummins of the 124th Pennsylvania Infantry observed, in part

We marched, not knowing really where we were going. Our first position was lying down near a fence, and we were immediately under cross fire. From the position we were in it was strange that every man was not killed.

He’s seen here on a page from Green’s History of the One Hundred and Twenty-fourth Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers in the War of the Rebellion 1862-1863 (1907), which is online thanks to the Hathi Trust.

We were hurried forward, and Company A passed through Miller’s yard, crossed the [Hagerstown] pike, past the barn into the field, advanced part way up the hill, and lay down [near Miller’s famous cornfield]. We were soon ordered up, and the Rebs fired at us; one ball took off my cap and nearly took my little finger, and one passed through the right sleeve of my coat. We were again ordered to lie down, and in a few minutes were ordered forward [into the cornfield]. I had fired about three loads when a ball went through my [right] leg.

— Corporal David S. Wilkinson, Co. A, 124th Pennsylvania Infantry at Antietam on 17 September 1862
