Several members of the 6th Wis Light Artillery and many other reenacting units at Hartland School Event May 13, 2016. |
September 1861... an Artillery unit formed out of Lone Rock, Wisconsin. They were answering a call of their country to fight in what we now call the Civil War. As a Wisconsin-based artillery unit we have chosen to represent the 6th Battery and honor the history of the unit.
