Col. Michael Corcoran at the Battle of Bull Run, Va, July 21st, 1861: The Desperate and Bloody Charge of the Gallant Sixty-Ninth on the Rebel Batteries This powerful image captures Col. Michael Corcoran of the 69th New York Regiment, also known as the "Fighting Sixty-Ninth," during the intense and pivotal moment of the Battle of Bull Run in Virginia on July 21, 1861. The First Battle of Bull Run marked the first major military engagement of the American Civil War and was a significant turning point for both the Union and Confederate forces. In this photograph, Col. Corcoran is depicted leading his men in a desperate and bloody charge against the Confederate batteries, with the smoke of gunpowder and chaos swirling around them. The determination and courage on Col. Corcoran's face are palpable as he rallies his troops, inspiring them to push forward against the formidable rebel defenses. The 69th New York Regiment, also known as the "Fighting Sixty-Ninth," was a volunteer infantry regiment that saw action in several major battles during the Civil War. Col. Corcoran, a native of County Cork, Ireland, had joined the Union Army as a colonel and quickly gained a reputation as a gallant and effective leader. His charge at the Battle of Bull Run, though ultimately unsuccessful in achieving its objective, demonstrated the bravery and tenacity of the Union forces in the face of overwhelming adversity. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the brave men who fought in the American Civil War and the pivotal role that Col. Michael Corcoran and the 69th New York Regiment played in the early days of the conflict.
