My great grandfather Robert Isaiah Bradley was a member of Co E . He survived being shot off his horse at Bentonville. He lived until 1929. Several wartime stories were passed down by his children and grandchildren. His obituary includes references to his service with Wheeler. He tried to enlist when Wheeler went to Cuba but they wouldn't take him. He said to the recruiting sergeant..." hell I shot better men than you!"
