Nebraska Troops in the War-- Part 1: Infantry, Cavalry and Scouts


From Wikipedia.

Some of these only saw action on the frontier battling the Indians.  Nebraska raised just one infantry  regiment, the 1st Nebraska which later became cavalry. Also raised were a regiment and battalion of cavalry, several militia companies and two scout companies.
