Regimental History
Twenty-fifth Infantry IOWA
(3 years)

Twenty-fifth Infantry. Col., George A. Stone; Lieut.-Cols., 
Fabian Drydolf, David J. Palmer, Majs., Calvin Taylor, John L. 
Perkins.

This regiment was organized at Mount Pleasant and was mustered 
in Sept. 27, 1862. It left the state early in November for 
Helena, Ark., where it remained four weeks. Then as a part of 
the 2nd brigade, 1st division, of the 15th army corps, it 
accompanied Sherman's forces to Vicksburg. It was engaged at 
Chickasaw bayou, but was not in the main charge and suffered 
light losses.

As a part of McClernand's command, it took part in the capture 
of Arkansas Post where it lost about 60 and won for itself the 
favorable opinion of its superior officers. With its division 
it took part in the expedition to Greenville in April, after 
which it was connected with the operations about Vicksburg and 
took part in the investment, losing about 30 men in the 
assault of May 22. After the surrender, it joined the second 
movement against Jackson, and went into camp at the Big Black 
River until September, when it embarked for Memphis.

It next marched to the relief of Chattanooga; was in a sharp 
fight near Cherokee Station, Ala., and at Lookout Mountain 
with Hooker's command supported a New York battery. It was 
engaged in the battle of Ringgold, losing 29 wounded. Col. 
Stone was placed in command of the brigade and Lieut.Col. 
Palmer took command of the regiment, which moved back to 
Chattanooga, thence to Bridgeport, Ala., and went into winter 
quarters at Woodville on Dec. 23.

It was in several expeditions into the interior, one of them 
being to Lebanon, where there were many loyal citizens, a 
number of whom joined Stone's command. It was then ordered to 
Cleveland, Tenn., and garrisoned that post until early in 
March 1864, when it returned to Woodville

As a part of the 2nd brigade (known as the "Iowa Brigade"), 
1st division, 15th corps, it was engaged at Resaca, Dallas, 
around Atlanta, Ezra Church, Jonesboro, Lovejoy's Station, and 
in many skirmishes. I t then went into camp at East Point 
until Oct. 4, when it took up the pursuit of Hood's army, but 
returned in time to take up the move for Savannah.

It had but little fighting on the way, but at the Ogeechee 
River two companies of the regiment whipped a regiment of 
cavalry without losing a man. At Savannah Col. Stone took 
command of the brigade, Lieut.-Col. Palmer having command of 
the regiment during the remainder of its service.

In the campaign of the Carolinas the regiment was engaged at 
Little Congaree Creek, Columbia, Cox's bridge and Bentonville. 
Proceeding to Goldsboro it moved thence to Raleigh and after 
the surrender of Johnston's army to Washington, where it took 
part in the Grand Review. It was mustered out in the early 
part of June, 1865. Its original strength was 972; gain by 
recruits, 23; total, 995.
