African-American Civil War
Veterans
One serious conflict involved both commissioned and
noncommissioned officers. In June 1864 (Lt. Col.)
Chamberlain chided Capt. George A. Bailey, who
commanded Co. H, for his inability to handle one of his
sergeants, Andrew Marshall. The evidence suggests that
the problem had less to do with racial tension and more to
do with Bailey’s incompetence. The Capt. wanted to
exchange Sgt. Marshall for another Sgt., but Chamberlain
told him either to manage Marshall or to jail him. The
episode was resolved only when Bailey resigned his
commission on 14 August 1864. Andrew Marshall would
then rise to the rank of Regimental Quartermaster
Sergeant.
