Book Description: The South Carolina 15th Infantry Regiment completed its organization in September, 1861, at Lightwoodknot Springs, near Columbia, South Carolina. The 15th South Carolina Volunteer Infantry was the fifth and last of the regiments formed to meet the quota of 3,000 new troops assigned to South Carolina by the Confederate government following the battle of 1st Manassas.
