Nov. 14th, 2009 Adopt-A-Position Project - Photos
Submitted by August Marchetti on Sat, 2009-11-07 22:41Unfortunately (my fault) scheduling this monument clean up was very short notice for a lot of folks who couldn't come out. Andrea, my wife, and I spent most of the day doing some work on the monument. We are scheduled to go back on November 14th with other volunteers to complete the task. Here are some photos from day one.

Lebanon Advertiser: No Date (Camp Green)

No Date (probably August 1861) [Lebanon Advertiser: 8-14-1861].
Camp Green, Company C,
7th Regiment, Pennsylvania Reserves.
Editor Advertiser:- Sir - We received a couple of the Advertisers today, and they were welcome to the Boys, as anything coming from home natrually would be. We moved from Camp Harvey five days since, and are now encamped two miles from the Potomac. So you see we are drawing closer so the spot where the next work will be done. I think that you will hear from the 7th ere long, as they compare favorably with any regiment I have yet seen in discipline and the material composing it, - each and every man having a pride in rendering it efficient and up to the mark. It is a burning shame upon Pennsylvania to look at the manner in which we have been treated by the rotten and corrupt administration of our native State. We have now been in service three months, and not one cent has been paid to a man as yet, while the favorites of the speculators have been luxuriating in idleness, not caring

July 27, 1861 [Lebanon Advertiser: 8-07-1861].
Company C, 7th Regiment, Camp Harvey,
Near Washington,
July 27th, 1861.
Editor Advertiser:- We arrived here on Thursday last, all well, and marched up to camp ground; the next morning commenced pitching tents, &c., and are now entering upon the duties of soldiers' life in earnest. We exchanged the arms we received at West Chester, for United States' Muskets, the same they tell us that were used by the 71st at the disastrous battle of Sunday. When a man looks at the style of arms he may truly come to the conclusion that nothing but the most unflinching bravery will ever render the troops of the Union victorious with such things in their hands.

Camp Wayne, July 8, 1861,
Lebanon Advertiser - Dear Sir: - Having seen your paper this week, I find that you have no news from our Camp in the shape of correspondence. If acceptable I will endeavor to keep you posted.
We have organized the 7th Regiment, to which the boys from Lebanon are attached, there being now two Regiments in Camp here.
